Hi Irene Sorry for the delay in replying to thank you for your email. I am hoping to have some time tomorrow so I'll see what I can make of the William in 1851. Salford definitely seems to be the pattern with this family, rather than Manchester. I will keep looking for a marriage of the parents of Susannah. Thank you again for the time you have spent and the advice you have offered me. I will keep you posted when I eventually put more pieces together.

There is a possible matching William on the 1851 census for Salford. He's an iron dresser at a foundry. He's married to Mary. They have these children Susannah, Joseph, Sarah Ann, Thomas and Ellen. Everyone was born in Salford. Susannah was baptised at the Collegiate Church on Easter Sunday 1837 and her father was a mechanic. So her parents (unfortunately) will have been married before Civil Registration began. Even so, I can't find a suitable marriage yet. I think it's likely that this William & Mary married before 1833 as there's a child Margaret baptised at the Collegiate Church to a William & Mary of Salford (Moulder). The family can be tracked through the censuses. I looked in case there was an aged parent living with them but there are no surprises. Just put this family on the pile of evidence and see what else turns up. Best wishes, Irene :-~:-~:-~:-~:-~:-~:-~:-~:-~:-~: Except for personal messages, please post replies to the list.
