My Gr Grandfather, Richard Aldred was born in Leigh about 1830. He married Anne (?) from Northwich, Cheshire 24 January 1852, he died in Leigh, 6 October 1889. I belive he was a blacksmith/millwright for a mill in Leigh. He had a sister Mary m. Joseph Cunliffe and they had eight children. The children of Richard & Anne were; Samuel, m. Rachel : William, my grandfather, b. July 1856 m. Emma Humphreys,abt 1877, : Martha m. James Hindle ; Emily : Betsy : Richard m (?) had a son John Roland Hall Aldred in the early 1890s': Charlotte : and Annie. All this information I found in an old packet of letters and would like to find out more about my Leigh family. My grandfather, William immigrated to the United States about 1880 and after he died in 1906 there wasn't any more correspondence from his family. I would appreciate any information about my many cousins in England. Arthur Aldred awaldred@earthlink.net Why Wait? Move to EarthLink.
