My Renshaw's are from Nottinghamshire. I know the following: According to the birth registration of my Great Grandmother, Miriam Elizabeth RENSHAW, her father was Henry RENSHAW, a tailor who lived on Chapel Street, New Basford, Nottinghamshire at the time of Miriam's birth in September 1872. Based on the 1881 British census, at which time they lived at 44 Upper El Grove St, Plumstead, Kent, Henry would have been born about 1842. I believe he was born in Warsop, Nottinghamshire. Henry married Sarah Ann Mimmack, b May 28, 1842, in the third quarter 1869 in a double wedding with her sister Catherine. Henry and Sarah Ann had four children, Sarah Ann, Samuel b. 1871, Miriam, and Gertrude. I have been able to trace Sarah Ann's family back several more generations, but I haven't been able to get any more information on Henry. Also, I have no idea what happened to Miriam's siblings, either. Does anyone have any information that might link to my Henry RENSHAW? Thanks, Ted Rozmaryn Anderson, CA
