Harrop from Mottram in Longendale

[marbee2]

Hi can anyone give me any information about any of the Harrop family, whom I am related.  My great grandfather was Joseph Harrop, and one of his sons was Leonard St George Harrop...who is my grandfather, so I would appreciate anything from other members of the Harrop family
Thanks
Marie

I am looking for any relatives of
 Joseph Harrop born 18/07/1791, who married Hannah Ann Woolley 24/05/1818 in Mottram.  I would like any information about these 2 people if possible
I am quite new to this so anything would be much appreciated.
I know they had a son named
Robert, but wondered if there were any other siblings for example
Many thanks
Marie
