      1901

      11 Droylsden Road Newton
      Luke Higham 52 stableman (brewery) [written over is groom ]
      Sarah Higham 50
      Alfred Higham 25 clerk ironworks [I think first bit is iron] Failsworth
      Mary A. Higham 20 silk weaver


      Interestingly, my husband's gt grandfather Charles, who is in London in 1901, moved to Newton Heath to work for R White's the soft drinks manufacturer.
      His daughter was born 1902 at no. 22 Droylsden Road, and his son Charles James played for the Newton Heath amateur team which became part of Manchester United. They moved back to London by 1911, when the daughter died.

        Thanks Little Nell. My mother was born in Newton Heath and I lived there until I was about 2years old just round the corner from the football ground
