Thread: 1901 Census

If anyone as access to the 1901 Census I'd be extremely grateful for a lookup.



Looking for William Beswick born c1824 in Leekfrieth Staffs.

I just wondered if William, his wife, sons George and Charles, daughters Mary A and Sarah E moved to Macclesfield Cheshire.



Regards

This could be Ann in 1901 Pauline



Macclesfield Cheshire

Ann Beswick/ 66/boarder/born... Brunt Oak Holins? Staffordshire

Hi bigdon and slizzy, the info sounds very much like the Beswicks I've been looking for/ I've got a William Beswick in my tree who died in 1893 aged 69 in West Macclesfield which would account for Ann moving into a boardinghouse on the 1901 Census. I just wasn't sure whether William gave up farming and all of the Beswicks moved to Macclesfield.



Thank you both for your time It's Very much appreciated

This record appears to be Charles in1891 Pauline

Charles Beswick/ 31/farmer/b. Staffs

So, yes it would appear the family did move to Cheshire
