Hi Kelly



Thankyou so much for the info, that's brilliant



Just one more question if I may ask was James's wife Mary Ann born in Leek Staffs?

Hi Pauline,



It said on both cenuses that she was born MacClesfield

Hi Kelly.

Thankyou



Oh dear, now that as put the cat amongst the pidgeons so to speak

So it's possible Mary Ann married in Staffordshire and stayed there or she moved to Macclesfield with her parents and siblings and never married. AAAH.

Oh well I guess it's back to the drawing board
