Hi again

LancashireAnn- re the christening... oops didn't notice the birth date-it does look like Charles' sister
Christina and AnnCardiff-thanks for the info I will look into it-the marriage looks good as her father was described as a carter on the 1861 census and if Charles did die in India then all the pieces look like they fit
Thanks everyone for all the help

Christine

I missed that too AnnCardiff

born 1859 - baptised 1879

wonder if that was a conversion to Cof E

St Mark's was Cof E but marriage of her parents was 'registrar attended' ie possible RC

Southworth was a common RC name associated with the Preston area

Could Charles have joined the army and died abroad?

Can't find Margaret & Elizabeth in 1871, so perhaps they went with him to India (If the above is him???), and then returned after his death?

Christine - the Elizabeth Ann I posted IS 1859 not 1879 :-)

Hmmm - he is elusive isnt he........ :-)
have to nip out now but will check back in later

Christine

Hi
Charles was born in Hoghton Lancs in 1841 and married Margaret Wilson in 1861 in Preston. They had a daughter Elizabeth Ann in 1862.
I have Charles with his family (parents William and Ann and siblings) in 1851 and with his in-laws and Margaret in 1861, both years in Preston........he then seems to disappear of the face of the earth. I cannot find him in any later census and there doesn't seem to be an age appropriate death for him.
If any one has a little time I wonder if you can try to locate him for me.
Thanks in advance
Christine
