Hi folks, Is there someone who might help me find in Australia a Manchester family who emigrated, please? Still tracking the DERBYSHIRE glassmaking family, I have reason to think that the two brothers who were the main driving force behind their glassworks in Hulme and Salford may have emigrated to Australia in the late 1880s. A sequence of tragedies in the family together with some decline in the glass trade may have made them want to give up in Manchester and start a fresh life somewhere else. The business was taken over by other members of the family. I do not have the global edition of Ancestry, but maybe someone on the list might have access to Australian records? The date would be between 1886 and 1891. Here are the people: James DERBYSHIRE, b. abt 1825, Urmston near Manchester, Lancashire and his daughter Mary Ann DERBYSHIRE, b. abt 1847, Hulme, Manchester, Lancashire John DERBYSHIRE, b. 1840, Chorlton district of Manchester, Lancashire his 2nd wife Elizabeth DERBYSHIRE (nee WHITAKER) b. abt 1837, Mossley, Yorkshire his daughter by his first wife, Lucy DERBYSHIRE b. 1860, Hulme, Manchester, Lancashire I have no other details which would help. Except I imagine they may have started up in glass in Australia as it would have been the only trade they knew. Many thanks! Sally in Yorkshire
