Sorry folks this is what it should have said ! ....... Hi there Belinda Thanks for the information and now you've got me thinking !! My grandfather was a glassblower. He married Glenfinella Hinchliffe. Glenfinellas father was Tom Hinchliffe. I am trying to form a link between Tom Hinchliffe, Elijah Hinchliffe (Phillipson)and the Phillipsons with whom my grandmother went to live. Note the occupations or places of work of the Elijahs you have sent me. I have never known how my grandfather and grandmother met. Possibly Elijah Hinchliffe (the younger) was staying with George Phillipson. Elijah possibly knew my grandfather from working in the glassblowing industry. Now there's something to ponder on ...... Thanks for the information, you may have something there !
