William Meredith married to Elizabeth Ridgway in West Macclesfield
« on: Thursday 19 June 14 06:37 BST (UK) »
Hi looking for 2014 descendants of this family. William was born in 1857, son of John Meredith and Sarah Bates.  He had several other siblings but he was the only one to stay in Macclesfield. in 1881 census he was staying in Ryle street, with his inlaws.

His children were many but several died very young
William Henry b 1886
Lillian 1890 married Wilfred Barton in St Johns, Macclesfield
Frank b 1894 (not sure if this is the same frank mentioned on the monument for war veterans)
Frederick 1896
Sarah 1881 marrried James Hyde.

Would appreciate any updates on their children, grandchildren,

Am visiting Macclesfield in July 2014 and would welcome help in where to research as will only be in Liverpool area for 3 days.

Thank you all

Looking on the census, we can't post 1911 details here, I think that it is 'your Frank'

William Henrys mother is Elizabeth Ridgway, think her father was Henry Ridgway.
Cant seem tofind a marriage for William Henry.

But at least we have an address of them now which was 42 Buckley Street, Macclesfield

I think Sarah Lizzie has possibly died pre1911, and there is another child Harriett, that you havent mentioned.

Have you found son William in 1911? If you can find his marriage, then can use bmd index to see if he had children, as shows mothers maiden name from 1911
