Hello Sandra, I have located a Stanley street in 1844 and 1894 on the east side of Strangeways prison. Its close to Cheetham, but I dont know the Cheetham boundries. Check the map out that I have sent you and let me know if its the right street and what time period you are researching.. Its close to a York street I was researching for another list member. To give you an idea of some of the problems while poring over maps. I have located so far, four different York streets in four different areas of Manchester. Scanned several map sections to make up a long length of street, then located another York street and again scanned several map sections. I did this three times for three of these streets.

King street in Deansgate ran to the east and became York street . York street ran to the east into Picadilly. I have sent you these map sections dated 1844.

Hi Mike, it is actually Boad Street I am interested in, an ancestor had a shop there. I would be interested to see the map though, if you don't mind. Look forward to hearing from you.

Hi Mike I think that Store street was near to Boad Street, was it? If so, and you don't mind, I would love a copy of the map.

Hi All Do we have any listers who are good at handwriting analysis? I have a letter dated 1810 which my 4xgr grandfather wrote. I've just received another letter today from Manchester library dated 1832 which I believe is the same person, I would just like to be more sure. Also where is York St? I'm assuming it's central Manchester. Jane :o)

Another longer York street was in Chorlton on Medlock in the 1844 map.

Send me a copy so I can see :)) There is a York street in Hulme in south Manchester. This runs to the south from near by St Georges church and to the east of the Cavalry Barracks. These barracks were suppose to have been built in 1811. You never know if there is a connection.

Did one of our list members have an interest in Store street, Manchester? I finally located this in the St Clements Ward in 1844 and have saved you the map section. Please let me know who I should send this to ? Regards Mike Morris Toronto Canada

Hi Rob and List May I also ask if the Cavalry from these barracks would have been serving in Linlithgow, Scotland around 1819 as an ancestor of mine married a local girl. They stayed at least until 1823 when they baptized their first child. I would be very interested to know if any lists of soldiers serving at this time exist. Regards Paul

Hi Rick Thanks for that information. Do you know if the 23rd Regiment of Light Dragoons was the only regiment stationed at Hulme Barracks around this time, or can you point me in the right direction as to where I may find out? Thanks very much. Rob

I located the following information from Rootschat.com (another great site for researching family history)The information was posted by a list member named 'Bursy' Regards Mike Morris Toronto Canada Hi,Howdie, >From the Alan Godfrey Maps Hulme Barracks was opened in 1817 as a cavalry barracks and covered 11 acres. Some of the regiments stationed there were 15th Hussars (Peterloo massacre 16 Aug 1819). 11th Hussars (aka the Cherry Pickers) 2nd Heavy Dragoons (Scots Greys) 14th Light Dragoons (14th Hussars) 7th Dragoon Guards (Black Horse) 17th Lancers (Duke of Cambidge's) The barracks closed and was demolished in 1914 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Paul Coulter" <paul@rettendon.freeserve.co.uk> To: "[ENG- Man]" <ENG-MANCHESTER@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, August 06, 2008 9:21 AM > May I also ask if the Cavalry from these barracks would have been serving > in > Linlithgow, Scotland around 1819 as an ancestor of mine married a local > girl.

Hi Rob, The Hulme Cavalry Barracks would have been there from 1799 because the 23rd Regiment of Light Dragoons was stationed there before leaving to fight at the Battle of Waterloo in 1815 Regards Rick.

Hi I have recently discovered a relative of mine Arthur Joe SHAW married Emily WILSON a widow (Nee HARRIS) at the Register Office in the district of Prestwich in Sept. 1913 in the presence of Thos WILSON and M.J.WILSON At the time of the marriage Arthur's occupation is listed as newsagent living at 30 Bradshaw Street, Broughton Emily is listed as living at 13 Garnett Street Cheetham The 1901 census shows Arthur as a Saddler, as he had been in previous census returns The 1901 census also shows Emily married to Harry Herbert WILSON living at 13 Garnett Street and lists Harry as a Newsagent and Shopkeeper Harry died in 1903 leaving Emily with a young son called Harry Herbert born in 1901 I would very much appreciate any help in finding what became of the family I seem to have hit a brick wall. Would the Register of Electors be of any use in establishing how long the family were in residence at the address given. Has anyone any other suggestions or have any links to the family.

Hi Sheila As far as I can make out my Ryder's originated from Blackley. They then seemed to split, and my line moved to Prestwich, I think through marriage. I am not sure how long they stayed there, but they ended up in Hulme in 1845ish, which isn't too far away from Rusholme. There was quite a few brothers, and one of them lived in Ardwick, that is the nearest to Gorton I have found. I did order a death certificate some time ago, as I was looking for my Greatx3 Grandfather, William. It doesn't seem to fit in with my family, and I am wondering whether it may be connected to you? It is for a William Ryder, died 1865 of 48 Plymouth Grove, Chorlton upon Medlock, he was a Landed Proprietor. If you think any of this fits, please contact me.

Sheila Hi David Could I be cheeky and ask a favour? While you are looking would it be possible to see if you can see any Ryder's living in the Blackley area. I have traced my Ryder's from around 1650 up to around 1840ish living in Blackley as Whitsters, I am not sure whether they would have moved to Prestwich by 1841, but if you could have a look I would be grateful.

Thanks to Mike, I have found the church where the Pollard family baptised at least some of their children on the IGI main page is just Burnley but when you search through the Batch numbers , you can find the name of the church, in my case P005202 was for ST Peters Church of England Burnley was for Henry Pollard baptised at Burnley in 1813 son of Thomas and Mary Bartle click on the source numbers and you get more information ...........

Thanks for all your help Mike I have also been trying to help another friend with a problem this afternoon so couldn't reply straight away. Funnily enough when you type in Oakenshaw on google and look at an aerial map, it is the correct area isnt it. I (my significant but not genealogically gifted other half) also had relations at Openshaw so it would be very easy to fall into the trap of thinking of the Gorton area..
