Hi Lorna, Have checked the 1851 waterdamaged CD and your family are living in the Greengate area of Salford. Piece HO107/2223, Enumeration District 5 - Schedule No. 63. The transcribed column heading for Schedule appears as "Shed." hence the confusion. To help you navigate the area on Mike's map section the streets either side of this entry are: Robert Street York Street Coade Street CROSS STREET James Street Henry Street Phillips Street Preston Place Paradise Row Broughton Road Regards, Madalyn >From Mike Morris: <I have located Cross street in 1844. Sheds are not mentioned on the map, but perhaps they are part of the industrial complex on Cross street. just below the cotton mill acroos from Ebenezer chapel and Bury street,.........> > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Lorna" <Lorna@xmission.com> > Sent: Thursday, August 28, 2008 3:09 PM > > >>I am new to this list but I am wondering if anyone can help me.

Hi Madalyn, thank you for this extra information. I perused the maps again and strange to find, there are three Cross streets not connected at all in the same basic area in 1844. I found the one you mentioned and have sent this one on., Plus the other one on the east side of Gravel lane church. My thanks for your help.

Dear Mike.. Apparently, I had the gold mine with you and Madalyn. I have a question on the Cross streets you found. There is a note that my Charles Edmunds was asked to visit the Greengate District. As he was crippled, I doubt he could have gone too far so would that narrow down the location of his Cross Street? As far as the shed being not a hovel..maybe that is just a reference to a house. Shed is what is printed in the top column of the 1851 Salford census. Any thoughts? Lorna Mike Morris wrote: > Hi Madalyn, > thank you for this extra information.
