Hi Doreen, You are wonderful!! Thank you so much. I have not yet found them in 1851 but do have them in 1861 when they were in Ardwick, Manchester. This (1841) gives me another child that I didn't know about, and a better guess as to when the parents might have married. Elizabeth definitely states that she was born in Middleton on all documents, so I think they would still have been there. Can I be really awful :) and ask if you could possibly check 1840 for me please? If it's not possible I will understand of course.
