Mary Ann Schofield
« on: Tuesday 13 October 09 01:14 BST (UK) »
I am looking for Mary Ann Schofield born in 1841. Probably around Oldham.
She married Edwin Hollis in 1859 in Oldham.
One son Joseph was born in 1861 in Oldham.
Is she in the 1841 or 1851 census please?
Thank you,
Mavis

Hi Mavis

Mary Ann in 1861 Census age 21, 1871 Census age 30 - both born Oldham.

There are 5 x  Mary Ann SCHOFIELD birth registered in Ashton under Lyne (which covered Oldham until 1848) in 1840 and 1841 (none prior to 1840). A further 3 are registered in 1842.

Without any thing else to go on, you will need to see if her marriage certificate names her father etc, to help determine which one is she.

Cheers

hi,

I noticed that on 1871 census Mary Hollis had a boarder called Samuel Schofield living with them - he was born Oldham age 26. I wondered if this was her brother.

Found this in 1851 Census for Oldham - writing very faint but looks like

James Schofield H 40
Ann Schofield W 38
Elizabeth Schofield 20
James Schofield 17
Edmund Schofield 14
Mary Ann 10
Samuel 7
John 5
Alice 9 months

All born Oldham

HO/107 piece 2240 folio 344 page 43

Regards

John
