Parkinson 1871 census lookup please
« on: Sunday 02 April 06 17:23 BST (UK) »
I am looking for Francis Parkinson b. 1850  Leyland and living in Queen Street Wigan in 1881 wife Mary Ann from Longtown, Cumberland, daughter Mary Ann b, Wigan.  I have been unable to find in 1871 aand would be very grateful especially if there are others in the household.  I've hit a brick wall with Mary Ann who I think was a widow before marrying Francis therefore I am looking for her children.


Many thanks

Hi Chris,

Just to check - I can see a family in 1881 but the details are slightly out:
Francis is born 1840 and they are living in Haigh, Lancs.

Is this your family?

... if so, then they are at RG10/3887 101 1 in 1871.

Let me know if you don't have access - I'll post the details.

Hi Tanya

My mistake it is 1840 - a senior moment - yes its the same family.  I don't have access at the moment so would be very grateful for details please.

Many thanks
