            There are a number of births on Lancsbmd which would fit the Thornton children - unfortunately it seems to be a very common name in the area.

            However, the Lancashire Register Offices are usually quite helpful, so if you order from them and specify mother's maiden name, they won't charge you for a wrong cert.

              Lindy, I'm just going to break that up into separate parts, as my tired old brain is having trouble digesting it all!! (Hope you don't mind :o)

                Hmmmm......In 1871 there's a Charlotte Stanford aged 16, father William, living in Hulme (17 Lloyd St), but William is a factory labourer (born at sea :( )

                RG10; Piece: 4002; Folio: 21; Page: 36

                The same family in 1861...Charlotte is listed as aged 5. William is a market porter and this time he says he was born in Manchester!

                RG9; Piece: 2881; Folio: 71; Page: 39;

                Lindy, do you have access to Ancestry to see these census pages?

                    I can't see a birth registration for Charlotte, but possibly she wasn't registered as it wasn't compulsory then.

                    In 1861 there is a "step-son" to the head of house, listed as Samuel Stamford aged 29. Presumably he took his step-father's name.

                    I found this marriage which may be for William and Sarah:

                    Marriages Sep 1855
                    Haywood Sarah Manchester 8d 294 <<<<<<<<<<<<<<
                    Shore Martha Manchester 8d 294
                    Stanford William Manchester 8d 294 <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
                    Wheeler William Manchester 8d 294

                    If I could find Sarah in 1851 it would be helpful if she had a son names Samuel, aged 19!

                    Well I couldn't find Samuel and mum Sarah in 1851, but did find a match in 1841:

                    Newbury St, Deansgate Manchester

                    William Haywood 30 cotton spinner
                    Sarah 30
                    Samuel 9
                    Sarah 4m

                    I will now try harder to find Sarah in 1851, knowing she should probably be married ir widowed rather than single...........

                              Mary Theresa's birth reg:

                              Births Sep 1896
                              Warren Mary Theresa Chorlton 8c 882



                              As you see, I had to leave the Haywood/Stanford lot, as I can't see them in 1851. There are other ways though...............

                                Tere are these entries on Family History Online, but I no longer have any credit on the site to see if any of these people are in the same household:

                                Sarah HAYWOOD found in Unfilmed 1851 Census 2 entries in Lancashire during 1851 details £0.20
                                William HAYWOOD found in Unfilmed 1851 Census 3 entries in Lancashire during 1851 details £0.30

                                There's a Samuel Haywood working as a servant ages 19 on the non wet part (born Layland Lancs....I don't know where that is!)! He might be the son of Sarah. There are no Samuel's on the wet bit, but I've only looked at the most basic of mistranscriptions. Also William Haywood might have died by 1851.

                                  Sorry, but both those Sarah Haywoods in 1851 are teenagers.

                                    And presumably Layland would be Leyland, which is near Preston.

                                      Yes and that's miles away isn't it?

                                      Looks like Sarah and any other Haywoods with her are mistranscribed a bit more! lol

                                        Not sure if this is going to help much at this stage, but the William Stanford marriage to Sarah is on Lancashire BMD, which says it was at Manchester Cathedral and gives an alternative surname of Burrows for Sarah - that will be her maiden name before she married William Haywood.
