1901 Census look up for Joseph Lever
« on: Friday 04 October 13 20:49 BST (UK) »
Good Evening
I am hoping that some one will be able to help with 1901 Census for Joseph Lever aged 55 Chemical Labourer - possibly Devon Street, Farnworth. I am also wondering if there is a John Hodgson / Swift born geasboro born about 1843 - Brick Maker.

Many Thanks

Moo

Where was Joseph born?  Was he married?  If yes - can you include wife and childrens names please

Should this be Guisborough Yorkshire or somewhere else?

Hello Carole

Sorry for the scant details, all I have with regards to Joseph is a second marriage in 1906, aged 61.
For John Hodgson / Swift I have Greasborough S Yorkshire (Rotherham possibly ) as a birth place 1842 bap.

Many Thanks for your time.

Hello Mosiefish

I am having a lot of trouble finding :-
1901
118 Leach Street, Farnworth
Joseph Lever, Head, Mar, 56. Labourer General, Lancs Gt. Lever
Caroline, Wife, Mar, 56, Stockport Cheshire

on ancestry , I think I have found Joseph in 1851 aged 7 Great Lever, then again 1861 aged 16 ?Padilan, and again in 1871 in ? Great Harwood however here he is married to a female called Martha and has a son called John. in 1881 he is married to a Sarah which fits with your previous information, and after Caroline he then marries another Sarah Isaac (widow), would you be able to track down a marriage for Joseph to a Martha, and the marriage to the first Sarah (1881 census).

Many thanks for any help or guidance

Hi,

From memory I think you will find him under Joseph Lover in the 1901.

Hi Moo,

1875 Joseph Lever married Sarah Cass at Emmanuel Parish Church, Bolton.  There are two Cass children living with them on the 1881 census.
