    1. [CHS] Richard & Nancy Brindley Macclesfield Chester, looking for marriage or death record.

    3. I'm looking for a* marriage* record for a Richard and Nancy Brindley who lived in and around EastMacclesfield, Cheshire. Richard was born about 1800-1820 in Cheshire -somewhere. Nancy, according to two of her children's birth records had a maiden name of Lowe, written by the transcriber from the GRO. I cannot find a Nancy Lowe in a marriage to a Brindley anywhere in Cheshire. I cannot find a Richard Brindley marrying a Nancy Lowe either. Or by phonetic spelling. I cannot find either one of them in the 1841 census in Cheshire, nor the 1851, or any that would make sense. Richard and Nancy had at least 3-4 children; Thomas b. 1836 at Wilboarclough (Wincle chapel records); Margaret b. 1838, Macclesfield; Elizabeth Christiana b. 1840 May, Macclesfield Workhouse (County Chester); and an Ellen, birth ?her father is listed as a pauper. I can't find them in the 1841 census or thereafter as Richard and Nancy Brindley, Brindle, Brinly. I have looked for even a clue anywhere and found none. I'm think that Nancy died before the 1841 census (after Christinna was born) and the children ended up in Macclesfield/workhouse school. Family story has that Margaret and Ellen were at the Macclesfield workhouse/orphanage. Any direction for records or advice where to look next, would be helpful. Thank you
