Upper Mitton

Thomas Birch - 55 - labourer ag.
Mary Birch - 55
Johny Birch - 20 - labourer ag.
Thomas Birch - 10

The 10 year old Thomas Birch was living nextdoor but one to Edward on the 1861 census.

Hi Christina, Thankyou it looks good, do you think all these Birch's could be related?
Harold

thank you to all of you, I think this could be all the birch, they come from the right area.
Thank you once again for all your help.
Kind Regards
Harold
