Hi, could somebody please try and help me make sense of this....My great grandmother was called Elizabeth Barrow b.1885 and her parents, according to her birth certificate were thomas barrow and jane dainteth. Elizabeth was born in Kinderton, Cheshire. |

Thanks again Siobhan! That helps, I wonder why i cant find a birth for Jane. Maybe i could try and find one for Mary Ann. |

Thanks Ron. I just wondered if the surname had been spelt wrong/different. I suppose if they were born in warrington they could have ended up in sandbach/middlewich couldnt they? |

Thanks Christina, that could be her, i've never seen her as emily anywhere else but i suppose she could use her middle name |

Could be Elouise, thanks, is that for 1860? |

On the census, if it says she was born in middlewich, could she still have been in warrington do you think? |

Can anyone see a marriage for william? maybe if he was married in warrington that might explain why jane was born there. |

What year is that marriage for? |

|
Hannah | Report | 11 May 2008 10:16 |

Ah so they married after Jane was born. Maybe jane did have a different mother and she died. Maybe thats where Anne comes in |

Yes those years seem right, going with the 1871 census |

It says jane's father was a labourer. Thomas and jane have signed the certificate and then two other signatures, one is joseph and the other is jane. I cant make out the surnames at all. Jane's looks like yewman? |

Hannah i would go back and check your other threads on jane you may have missed some of the information found for you yesterday. |

I wonder why he isnt there. Maybe i need to send off for the birth certificate that i think might be jane and that might make things clearer. Thanks everyone for your help! |
