Martha P Chester born 1847 Lancashire
« on: Friday 09 August 19 06:18 BST (UK) »
Hi
I have a Martha P Chester born 1847 to Edward & Betsy Chester, she appears on the relevant census but nowhere does it say what her middle name is
I cannot find her on Lancs OPC, Ancestry or FreeBMD
The Purdey family has her listed on there records through ancestry but I haven't got a subscription at present

If I have the correct family, in 1851 Edward and Elizabeth, with children Martha and William were living in Oldfield Road, Salford. From GRO Index I deduce William's birth registered March Q 1851, Salford, mmn Parker.

Edward Chester and Betsy Parker on same page March 1850, Warrington.
Birth of Martha Parker (no mmn) registered  Warrington  March 1847.
Suggest "P" for Parker.

Brentor Boy - you have correct family, The Warrington birth seems correct as the Chorlton birth I think belongs to a different line
Middle name Parker maybe your right never give that a thought, maybe it will be on her marriage cert that is if she married
Excuse my ignorance but what is mmn ?
Thanks to all
