I'm researching my DUCKWORTH roots and am at a brick wall with Thomas. I have his information from the 1881 census, but can't find anything prior. He was born in 1835? in Blackburn, Lancashire. Thomas married Johanna (BOWMAN) DUCKWORTH and had several children: Elizabeth (my gggrandmother), William H., Isabella, Mensfirth, Robert, and Margert all born in Blackburn, Lancashire. I know that Johanna and the children did migrate to New Bedford, Massachusetts...she died there in 1911. Any help would be greatly appreciated...Thank you in advance Christine Columbia, Maine, USA
