I'm seeking the family of Mary Ann COTTRELL who married first William BURNETT, then John WILKINSON Sr and either married or had a common-law relationship with William HAMER before returning to her second husband who had apparently been thought dead. In 1841 Mary Ann was living at Top of Brighton St., Manchester and her occupation was given as a "Mangler". In 1851 she was at 13 Back Foundry St., Manchester, a servant. I believe that some of her children were involved in the textile manufacturing trade as some lived briefly in the Bollington, Cheshire and Liverpool areas and their occupations appear to be textile related. Thanks kindly. Cheers, **** Descendants of Mary Ann (*) COTTRELL Generation No. 1 1.
