Thread: Help looking for George Graham

hi to everyone



I have just joined this site. So far so good.



I am struggling to find a relative from about 1850



Born in Salford England about 1850

It's late and my head is spinning from looking up past relatives. Well, that's my excuse.



I said I was looking for George Simpson. Wrong



I am looking for Geroge Graham or James Simpson.



Both born in

Salford

England



Sorry for the blunder

Hi,



Both names were common around the Manchester area, so it's difficult to pinpoint your men. Do you have any other info such as : an occupation, parents names, siblings names, wife's name?

thanks for your reply



George Graham was born in 1878. He was a general labourer in an iron works.

He was married to Amelia Ann who died young.

They lived in Saford, lancashire.



James Simpson was married to Leah Simpson and they a daughter Eva Olive (my Grandma)



I don't know much about him. His wife was born in 1877 I think.

In 1911 he was no longer with my great grandmother. All I know is that they had been married for 15 years previously.

Hi, this looks like their marriage.

The only Leah Buckley birth (Salford) I can find, was registered in 1873, is this too early? There's a couple of others, born Manchester, and Oldham.
