ARDERN FAMILY IN CHESHIRE
« on: Saturday 07 March 09 20:03 GMT (UK) »
Been tracing the Ardern family back from George Steel Ardern born in 1921 in Bollington through his father Percy Ardern (1885-1943) born in Bollington. His father was Joseph steel Ardern (1859- 1934). His father Robert Ardern (1834-1889) born in Wilmsley.
His father was a James Ardern born in 1801 in Wilmsley and married Elizabeth ?. He died in 1884 in Bollington.
Does anyone have any more information on James Ardern and wife Elizabeth in the Wilmslow area?.
Many thanks

Hi jason_madams,

Is this the family in 1851? Goldenthall, Bollington (HO107 2158/367 Page 18):

James ARDERN, Head, Mar, 56, cotton Warper born Wilmslow
Elizabeth ARDERN, Wife, Mar, 48 born Wilmslow
John ARDERN, Son, U, 23, Power Loom Weaver Cotton born Wilmslow
George ARDERN, Son,  U, 21, Warehouseman born Wilmslow
Henry ARDERN, Son, U, 19, Power Loom Weaver Cotton born Wilmslow
Robert ARDERN, Son, U, 15, Power Loom Weaver Cotton born Wilmslow
William ARDERN, Son, U, 13, Power Loom Weaver Cotton born Bollington
Mary Ann ARDERN, Dau, 13, Power Loom Weaver Cotton born Bollington
Harriet ARDERN, Dau, 10,  Power Loom Weaver Cotton born Bollington
Maria ARDERN, Dau, 8, Scholar born Bollington
James ARDERN, Son, 6, Scholar born Bollington

If this is correct I would probably send for one of the birth certificates of a child born after 1837 to confirm Elizabeth's maiden name.
