  • New cert arrived today

    The birth cert arrived today for my Great Grandfather John Seddon born 22 august 1906.
    His parents were John Seddon and Ellen Halliwell.

    John and Ellen married 1900 wigan.

    Ive found John and Ellen on the 1901 census with their first child Mary E Seddon 1month old.

    Class: RG13; Piece: 3549; Folio: 115; Page: 18

    Luckily for me when John (jnr) was both born and married in 1944 he was living at the same address as his parents were on the 1901 census (82 longfield street Aspull Wigan.

    Now can anybody spot Ellen Halliwell or John Seddon on any other census?

    I have had a look and would like to see if any particular ones jump out at anybody.

    Many thanks

    I'll look a bit later, but you might be best to get their marriage cert now.

                I know it's them, Danny; I was just trying to save everybody else the bother of looking that entry up since you already have that info.

                There are two possible Ellens on the 1881 both born Wigan - one age 10, daughter of Joseph and Ellen and one age 9 daughter of Wm. so you will need to be careful not to pick the wrong one!

                    And there are a few possibles for John in 1881 too who were born Wigan - one age 13, parents James and Martha, one age 15 (prob. too old) parents Edward and Susan, and one age 10 parents James and Julia (seems most likely?).

                      Sorry, I couldn't see John in 1881. Well nothing obvious anyway!

                      But as Kite said, might be best to get the marriage cert before going any further.
