Thankyou Denise

From memory i couldnt remember and for some reason his birthplace isnt in my notes.

Danny

[Uncle John]

Right.

He's mistranscribed as CARLOUGH. I've submitted a correction to Ancestry.

The whole family is born Wigan. Head of family is John Seddon. William is his stepson. There's also a stepdaughter.

[Christine in Herts]

Do you have any other snippets which could narrow him down?

I eventually found him just with William. Because the surname was mistranscribed CARLOUGH the matches were all rubbish.

I saw that one (transcribed) and decided that Carlough was the wrong shape for Cartwright and didn't look at the image... wrong again! Well done, UJ!

No great detective skills. It was the top of the list for "William" "1852" plus the census ref. The ref matched so I looked at the image. Voila.

I meant that you didn't fall into the same trap that I did!
