Hi thanks for looking for me, I appreciate all you have done. I realise it is hard for me but I can't check census etc because I am not a full member of any where the fees are too costly when your 77 years old I am only on a small pension and husband only has his pension. I had the details of his son Michael George known as George. Had a daughter Jane Doyle in 1895 they lived at that time in Barnoldswick which was Yorkshire then it is now in Lancashire. She died in 1891 and was registered at Blackburn. All people living in Accrington Clayton le moors where registered in HasLingden now Accrington Church, Owaldtwistle were Blackburn . So I don't know where they were living in 1991 when she died.  I am sure I have seen 1891 census where the mother Agnes, Emily, and Rose Hannah were on the Clayton le moors Census living in Church st Clayton le Moors. Jane must have died  as she isn't on. It states that Agnes the mother is a widow. There is no sign of The Grandfather Michael either. The last census I saw father Michael and son Michael George was on the 1871 census in Barrowford.  I used to be able to look at census on Ancestry but now they won't let me without joining. . That is out of the Question .
Anyway thanks again Theresa

Many of us on here are pensioners on low incomes so understand what you are saying.  Familysearch does cover most census and it is free.  ;D

Lancashire is very well covered for parish records and registrations

It looks as though Jane died later that year

Hi Rosie, thank you ever so much for the Family search info I will have a look. I know there are many elderly people on pensions and can't afford the fees  but for people like you who knows that there are one or two free sites. People like me would never find out . Thanks again, perhaps I will get through my brick wall Theresa

I don't know how near you are to a County library but most of them in the UK have free Ancestry access and some have FindMyPast too

Hi, I am about 25 miles away and can't drive that distance at the moment, I will just look at Family search and  the Parish clerks site thanks for suggesting the Library

Do you not have a more local library  :-\  25 miles is a long way just to look at Ancestry for a couple of hours
