Sanders Family

Hi

This is a tall order but I am helping a friend research there tree and have come to a grinding halt at the first hurdle.

The only information I have is as follows
Lennard or Leonard Sanders b: ? married Sally Taylor b:?
They had 3 children Joseph Mayall Sanders b: 1939 Ashton under Lyne
Albert Frank Sanders and Jean Sanders.

There is a family story that connects the Sanders family to Travelling Showmen but unsure if this is via Marriage and the Taylor family.

Any information or help would be most grateful

Many thanks
Ann

This looks like birth of Joseph Mayall but mother's maiden name is Turner. Could she have been previously married to a Taylor?

This was posted in 2008 on ancestry by Joseph's daughter-in-law. Are you in contact with her? (But no replies showing)
