John Carlyon b.1901

[Cas (stallc)]

Interesting, guess only the marriage cert would help prove if he is John Booth/Carlyon

Stockport is 7 miles from Stalybridge (genuki) Olive Carlyon registered Ashton in 1905 so family still around the area.

Wife died June 1928. So if it is him he remarried fast.

Great piece of info Alan! Re the newspaper clipping. So they married March 1900

Edit - 1901 census taken 31 March and with her father, so this would have been just after John was born.

Forget John Booth, well documented on a tree.

Yes, I've been circling around that connection too. This is the tenuous story I have:

Rowland Booth birth registered 1879 Q3 Stockport

1881 census
Ashton-under-Lyne
John Booth, 35, carpenter, Huddersfield
Sarah, 36, Glossop
William, 14, Glossop
Mary, 9, Ashton
Emily J, 5, Hadfield
Rowland, 1, Hyde [close to Ashton]

1891 census
Glossop
John Booth, widr, 46
Emily J, 16, Hadfield
Rowland, 12, Ashton
George, 6, Ashton
John, 5, Ashton

Then Anc* suggests that both Rowland and George have subsequent records in USA, I don't have access to those records but Rowland has a 1910 US census record.

Note the Glossop connections; Glossop is 8 miles from Ashton, Stalybridge a little closer to Glossop.

There is a Leonard Booth born 1905 Q3 Glossop

Interesting, have viewed the same UK records. I don't have access to the US hints either.  He seems a very good candidate.

Without family DNA matches, it would be difficult to confirm if connected, or just a red herring.
