Ann Fish (my great great grandmother) b21Jun1845 in Blackburn, m Richard Gifford in 1866, and died in 1920.
Her parents James Fish and Lettice Hayhurst married in 1838 at Manchester Cathedral but both died young c1849 leaving their children orphans (I know Ann had brothers called Joseph and Richard but there could be others I'm not sure).
James Fish's father was called Richard Fish and he was a weaver (wasn't everyone?!) but I don't know much more.
Any info would be gratefully received!
