    Hi,

    Could anyone help, pls?

    Would like to find the parish records for a John Duff(e)y and his sister Mary Duff(e)y

    John bn c1874 Haydock, Lancashire
    Mary bn c1878 Haydock, Lancashire

    parents are James Duff(e)y and Mary ? both from Ireland c 1850

    They are living in Workington, Cumbria as per the 1881 and 91 census but struggling to find details prior to this.

    Hello

    Have you found John Duffy ( with an Emily ) on the latest census, if you do you may find that he shows WIGAN!

    This is a link for St James the Great Lancashire OnLine Parish Clerk Project - Parish of Haydock has Haydock parish records for the period, no trace of Duff(e)y

    Thanks for the replies.

    The conundrum I have is...

    1911 Census - John bn Wigan, Lancs
    1901 Census - John bn Lancs, Haddock (Can only assume this is supposed to say Haydock)
    1891 Census - John & sister Mary bn Haydock, Lancs
    1881 Census - John & sister bn Workington, Cumbria (I think must be an error as this is where they are living and the younger siblings must have been born.)

    My best guess was that John and Mary were born in Haydock, Lancs (Ashton-in-Makerfield, Newton-le-willows, Newton-in-makerfield, Warrington, St.Helens, Wigan) which I believe is 6 miles from Wigan.

    Parents are James and Mary.

    Looking at FreeBMD I can narrow it down to three:
    Qtr DEC 1873 John Duffy WIGAN 8c50 - Discounted as the parents are John & Bridget
    Qtr MAR 1874 John Duffey WARRINGTON 8c153
    Qtr JUN 1874 John Duffy WARRINGTON 8c230

    And two for Mary:
    Qtr MAR 1878 Mary Duffey WARRINGTON 8c183
    Qtr JUN 1878 Mary Duffy WIGAN 8c49 – Discounted as the parents are John & Bridget

    Would Parish Records give any other details?

    I think I have exhausted the census records. Any info from Parish records would be great.

    Regards, Jo
