I think it could be Adam Mabel. I need to find the marriage of his parents to confirm.

I have the marriage of Adam Mottershead to Mary Daniels in 1875.

Both Adam and his father James were given as Finishers this is something to do with manufacturing cotton as is the occupation of Callanderer.

I am still unsure as to the year of James Birth though.
According to various Censuses he is 7 in 1841
In 1861 he is 26 and in 1871 he is 45

Further to my previous posts. I have discounted William Mottershead and Elizabeth Weedall as James parents . Their James died as a young child. I have also found the marriage of Elizabeth to a George Myers Hiscocks in 1844. With Samuel Weedall as her father.
I have also come across a strange thing - in 1850 the family appear to be listed twice on different pages and folio in Ancoats
Address 1 = Bengal St - Betsy Mottershead 17( Spinner), Mary Mottershead 15( Spinner) , Wlm Mottershead 13, Thos Mottershead 10, Saml 9, Ann Myers 1. Nr Shilling place and Shilling Court
Address 2 = Bengal - Gee Hescock 28 Wheelwright, Eliza Hescock 29, Eliza Mottershead 17(Spinner), Mary Mottershead 15(Spinner) William Mottershead 13, Thos Mottershead 11, Saml Mottershead 9, Ann Hescock 1 Near Jersey Street. They are also still together in 1850 with another son George. So I'm drawing a blank now. I found the marriage of Elizabeth Mottershead to Edward Dean in 1849 wigh Elizabeths Father with the surname Ogden. Any assistance would be gratefully received.
