    Default Myerscough ~ Preston Lanc's

    Hi



    I have found Edward Myersough born 1897 Preston Lancs on the 1901 Census. Parents listed as

    Father ~Urefield Myerscough Born 1866 Preston Lanc's

    Mother ~ Mary Born 1871 Preston Lanc's



    I Cannot find a marriage for his parents Urefield & Mary or any earlier census records for Urefield Myerscough. Maybe his name has been misspelt ?



    any help much appreciated

    Hi,

    It looks more like Wilfrid or Wilfred to me.

    I can find a birth for a Wilfred Myerscough Mar 1870 Preston vol 8e page 535 but cannot find a marriage to a Mary.

    Hi Kiwi



    The birth certificate of Edward would give his parents details, including his mothers maiden name.



    Possible entry on FreeBMD is:



    Edward Myerscough Dec Qtr 1896 Preston Vol 8e Page 640



    Maybe thats the way forward OR have you found Edward on the 1911 Census? Maybe he was still living at home with a bit of luck



    good Luck with your research

    I agree with Emeltee, the original sheet looks like Wilfrid.

    Hi Kiwi,



    On the 1901 census is a Miles Watson (nephew) living with the Myerscough's.



    There's this possible marriage but the bride's name isn't Mary, however I've had this in my ancestry (records with two different forenames) maybe she was Mary Alice, or Alice Mary, or liked the name Mary. It's a lead worth pursuing anyway.

    There is a Mary Alice Watson on the 1891 census, in Chorley.
