1841 lookup Bilton, Arnell

[Shirley201]

Oops I think I posted this on the wrong page so I'll try again. I'm a newbie here, so hope I am doing it right!
Looking for John Bilton (often mistranscribed as Bitton) born 1826 Runcorn.
He married in 1846 at the parish church of Eccles to Ellen Arnell or Arnold, age unknown. The marriage cert gives their abodes as Pendleton but later census shows them in the New Cross section of Manchester.
The Pendleton film is unreadable so am hoping they turn up elsewhere.
All contibutions gratefully received! Shirley

Hi Shirley

Welcome to Rootschat!

I've found them in 1851, but the image is appalling 

I can't find John in 1841, but he may still be in Cheshire or given his apparent occupation in 1851, he may be "in transit"!

1851 census, Manchester Deansgate, Gilbert Street
HO 107/2227 folio 784 pg 24

? Bitton; head; mar; 28; waterman; Runcorn, Cheshire
Ellen do; wife; mar; 26; Manchester
Elizabeth do; dau; 4; Manchester
Joseph do; son; 2; Manchester

Does the marriage certificate give the fathers' names, as this might make 1841 search easier?

Otherwise you'll have to post the request to the Cheshire board for John.

Regards
