Have received a query from a contact in Canada concerning a Samuel Greatorex born in Jan 1858. If anybody has access to the 1871 UK census for Sheffield could they look and see if he is there along with his family with any indications of where his father was born. Being born in January he should show an age of 13 if the enumarator got it right of course. He is present on the 1881 census in Sheffield but in his own household with no parent present. TIA Mike Greatorex of Harrogate, England http://www.freewebs.com/greatorexfamily/ Looking for all members of the Greatorex family in the following areas. Sheffield and North Notts, England/NY State/Alabama/Florida and Philadelphia.
