Mary Ann Cain (or Smith) Prison records

Who is William’s father and what was his occupation?

[Ruth1973]

In my tree, Willian Henry Smith father is called James Smith and Bridget, but I’ve only found this as a potential from using census records.

I have an ancestry result for a marriage between William and Rose from BMD in Dec 1984 but I’ve not found the details on the Lancashire site.

That’s a cert I need to order at some point to confirm both of their parents for definite. But I do know William had a sister called Kathleen.

The address mentioned in the 1871 census 45 Angel Street, Manchester  is a known address in the family bible linked to William.

This is where he was living at the age of 8 in 1871.
Father name James

Haven't found a baptism for son "James" yet. Not sure if he's older than Susan (bap 1882), or if he was the child Mary Ann was pregnant with whilst incarcerated. He died in 1885, according to the letter received from Elizabeth Jones. Interesting that EJ is the only person who exchanges letters with Mary Ann.
