Edmund Stead b 1881 in Wardleworth ,Rochdale
marries in 1904 to
Dinah Ann Wrigley at St Thomas church ,Newhey, Rochdale CE35/1/242
on
www.lancashirebmd.org.ukthis couple looks to be the parents of Ernest b 1906 ...could someone else give a point of view please .
in 1901 census Edmund Stead aged 20 is down as a son - still in Wardleworth ,St Marys parish ,(Rochdale )
could someone please post the family please ...
on familysearch there is an entry for a Thomas Stead that goes back as early as 1707 in Wardleworth - , so the Stead family are in Wardleworth , 300 years ago
