Nicky

Hi Nicky,

I had a look for marriages for the girls but couldn't pinpoint any. May I ask how you have Ethel Crowther in your tree, or how you came to her?

Hi Dee

Ethels father John Crowther was my Great Grandmothers Annies brother. Ive lots of Crowthers on my tree but dont know any living ones
Nicky

Hi Nicky,

Did you look at the marriage for John Willie Crowther and Betsy? If you haven't I would take a look at her surname as it may well be an interest for you.

I was hoping to find the girls marrying in Halifax reg district but the ones that I did find I couldn't a corresponding death for them..... so I think they may have married out of the Halifax district.

Hi Dee

I know a little about Betsy. I have her birth c1865 in Stansfield and her maiden name as Hollindrake, and thats all.
I have looked for her daughters but found nothing much, just one very doubtful marriage for Elsie in Dec1921 to ? Walton. Most of my Crowthers are in Todmorden
Nicky

have you used this site Nicky

http://todmordenandwalsden.co.uk/

there is a John Willie Crowther marriage in the right era but it is to a Betsy Barker

did you get the name Hollin(d)rake from one of the children's birth certs?

I know the Todmorden site, its been very useful, thanks. Ive found john and Betsy on the site run by the Mormons in America.
They married on 1.8.1887.
I dont have any birth certs as I only knew of Ethel until yesterday and its been such a while since I sent for any certs I cant remember how to do it, Must be an age thing!!
Nicky

.....why do you think the marriage of Elsie M Crowther to Ritchie Walton in Todmorden Dec 1921 is doubtful? - JLe

Hi Janet
Not been able to find that marriage anywhere else, thats the only reason

Nicky

There are a lot of likely children born to the Walton/Crowther marriage Nicola, all who could possibly and many likely still be alive. I have just done a quick search on here and one of them seems to have himself.
You could send them a private message and see if it's the same family.

Hi Christine
Please could you pm me some details
Thanks Nicky

Will do Nicky.

Thanks Chris, I know what you mean about the tv prog! Im thinking that the last 2 are a different family because of their ages but will see if I can find the others.
Thanks again nicky
