Hi,
could somebody kindly do me a 1901 census look up please for Robert Butler born 1871 Flookburgh lancashire...i think he married Agnes Robinson of either Glasson Dock Lancaster or Flookburgh also not certain on her.
Robert Butler's parents were Jane Bland and James Butler of Flookburgh Lancashire but the family did move to Glasson Dock after the 1881 census.
Robert's siblings were
Eleanor Butler born 1874 married John Worthington
William Butler 1869c yet to find a partner for him

Thankyou again Gail....looks like it must have been a possible Elizabeth gardner who was William's wife and alittle older than him perhaps married before with the younger gardner's in the family?

Now what about Lucy aged 7, was William married before, did they not get married until after Lucy was born, or do I have the wrong marriage.

Now you have me wondering if Lucy Butler was a child from William's possible first marriage with her being 7 years......

i am slow arn't i!!
i think it must be the right marriage as i think the butler family lived at Sunderland point near Overton which is just across the river from Glasson Dock another fishing community

Hi Angela

No you are not slow at all.

I think when the transcription is saying Sunderland Parish on the actual image it looks like Sunderland Point to me.

So Gardner children etc born Sunderland Point.

This looks good Gail...thankyou very much....i assume both william's wife and Elizabeth's husband must have passed away...also looks like there wass only Lucy to william's first marriage

Angela

Angela Report 15 Jan 2008 21:06

That looks like a good match for Lucy's birth

I wonder if Lucy's middle name Patricia was the first wife of william's forename?
Thankyou again Gail you have opened up alot for me tonight....and got me thinking!
I've been to sunderland point and wondered if the parish was under either Heysham or Overton as Sunderland is so small and there is no church there
kind regards
