    1. [ROTH] HINCHLIFFE help please
    2. Karen Hill
    3. Hi there I have found in 1923 in Sheffield an Elijah Hinchliffe Phillipson living with my grandmothers foster father George Phillipson what looks like could be prior to his marriage to my grandmothers foster mother Eliza Ann. I started my family tree to try and find out why my grandmother, Glenfinella Hinchliffe and her sister Gwendoline, daughters of Tom and Elizabeth Hinchliffe after the death of their mother and possibly father, as I cannot find him, went to live with George and Eliza Ann Phillipson. It seems as I may have found my link. As the surname on the Electoral register is double barrelled I have persued Elijah Phillipson - I have one that possibly fits the bill from Grimoldby in Lincs. I have now found an Elijah Hinchliffe, funnily enough the same age (46) on the 1901 census living in Rotherham with his wife Elizabeth age 33 and child Ethel age 11. All born Rotherham. If lists Elijah Hinchliffe age 46 born Rotherham wagon wheel dresser. I wondered if anyone has access to the census from further back ie 1891 and 1871 to see if they can locate Elijah. I am hoping possibly it may show some other Hinchliffe connections. I am really desperate now and clutching at straws as I have been trying to find this link for a number of years. All offers of help and suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks Karen Hill
