Further to my last posting. Henry BROOMHEAD died Oct-Dec quarter 1896, Nottingham, birth year shown as 1835. Harriet BROOMHEAD died July-Sept quarter 1899, Nottingham, birth year shown as 1847 Arthur BROOMHEAD, and Ada BROOMHEAD are on the 1901 census living with Henry BALL, and described as step-brother and step-sister. These appear to be the only two children of Henry and Harriet. I have just realised that the Harry BROOMHEAD on the 1891 census was in fact Henry BALL - Henry being compatible with Harry, and the enumerator including all children, incorrectly, under the BROOMHEAD name. Still can't find a marriage. Obviously lived "over the brush". Brian Binns

I have come across Broomheads while researching my early Cutts lace families in Nottingham.     Do not have much information on them, but this may help. 1841George St. Basford (off Duke St. - many lacemakers in this district) Samuel and Hannah CUTTS (nee Bramley) had three Broomhead children with them including Ann, b. o/s Notts 15, a Lace Winder,.   Thomas Broomhead, 3, b,. Notts,  Granville Broomhead, 4 months. Believe they are related to related familes, probably lodging temporarily.   If Ann's age is nearer 20 they could be her children? Samuel and Hannah Cutts emigrated to US in 1842 1851Pelican St. Radford  (Near Canning Circus) Harriett Broomhead, M. 35 (no husband with her) and Ann Broomhead, 25, Single, 35, both born Wymeswold, Leicestershire. 1861not found 1871Pelican St.Radford Mary Broomhead,  M. Head. 48, Dealer in Lace, b. Wymeswold John Brown    M. Head and Lodger, 40 Lace Maker, b. Lenton Harriet Brown    Da 36, Lace Maker's wife (married 3 Feb 1852 Sneinton St. Stephen) 4 Brown children. The Brown family  moved along the Canals, as did several of the Cutts families. Early fwks and lace makers were from Notts., Derbys, Leics, and part of Lincs., many working at home and sending their work to the Lace Manufacturers who were moving to the towns as mechanisation changed the production. Most of these families were Non Conformists and thus will be found in the various Chapel records. I would be interested in hearing from anyone who can add more to these families.
