    Exclamation Precilla Ashness

    Hi,

    I'm searching for the spouse of Precilla Ashness, she was born in c1857 in Macclesfield Cheshire, her married name is Precilla Beggs but I cannot find a marrige for her, she had a son Joseph Henry Beggs in 1878, but no clue to the name of his father.

    Thanks

    Hi Pauline1!

    As you say, interesting why Thomas and his wife are living sep. on 1881 cencus!

    Here's Priscilla and Thomas H in 1881.

    15 George Street, Macclesfield
    Priscilla - 24 - Silk Weaver
    Joseph H - 2

    Ref: RG11 3491 63 2

    They are living with her parent's George & Sarah Ashness and 6 of her siblings. If you want these details I will let you have them. I don't know how to copy them over!

    In case you don't have it:

    1901 Ref RG13 3309 145 21
    Living 3 Union Road, Macclesfield

    Priscilla Beggs - 44 - Widow - Silk weaver - working from home
    Joseph H Beggs - 22 - Single - Postman Civil

    So, husband and Father,Thomas Beggs, died between 1891 and 1901.


    Interesting footnote : Next door to them (#5) was one Thomas Dunning whose occupation was "Conjurer & Ventriquiloqist"!!

    Hi Rubina, thanks for your replies. I have already attached the 1881 census to Priscilla and her parents.
