I have just been filling in a few gaps in my family tree file. I can't find this one in 1841, someone might like a go at finding him. Stock Wood BRISCOE (sometimes written Stockwood BRISCOE) Born 1817 Bolton Married Jane WHITELAW 1844 Bolton. She was born Scotland ABT 1822 He was the son of Robert BRISCOE and Elizabeth WOOD. Robert died before 1841 but Elizabeth was in Green Street, Little Bolton in 1841 Stock Wood BRISCOE was a weaver Odd thing is that in 1841 there was a Granddaughter Elizabeth BRISCOE living with his mother, she was Age 2. In 1851 he was living at 24 Green Street and had a daughter Elizabeth BRISCOE Age 11, presumably the same person but he married in 1844 and was a bachelor when married. It is not crucial but he has always interested me because of the unusual name - the IGI has it as Hock Wood BRISCOE but it is definitely Stock Wood BRISCOE (his mother had a brother called Stock WOOD). I have him in 1851 and 1861, he died 1867. Martin Briscoe Fort William M&LFHS | Gwynedd FHS
