ellen pearson what was her married name?
« on: Tuesday 08 February 11 19:02 GMT (UK) »
Hi
i am trying to trace information regarding my great aunt ellen(dolly) pearson born 1909 in salford i am unable to find out who she married, but apparently he owned or ran irish dance halls in salford, and for a short time the couple ran the northumberland house (pat corrys) on derby street salford. The pearson family from salford are proving to be a difficult one to crack  ???
thanks sharron

There's no geography in your profile.

How about looking up electoral rolls to see who resided at that address?

Or: looking at candidate marriages and seeing which surnames appear in phone books for the address? (Lancashirebmd & Ancestry phone books (Use library edition))

Hi pauline
This has been a very difficult one it is only in the last couple of months that my dad has realised that ellen who hed always known as auntie dolly was actually his auntie and not just a friend of his parents he was an only child who was orphaned young and has no living relations to get any info from. He only has vague memories of her running the northumberland house and we cant find any marriages for her in salford so i wondered if anyone had any possible names of her or her husband through the irish dance halls so that i could check marriages in other areas.

There _are_ marriages for Ellen Pearson in Salford .
How did you eliminate those as being the incorrect bride?
