My G3/parents~ Maria Barben &James Thomson married at Ainsworth~ Cockey church~ (banns) Jan20th~ 1840.(I have cert copy.) Her father was Thos Barben~ (a book-keeper)His wife was Susannah. They had 3 more daughters~ all christened at St Peters~ Bolton-Le -Moor~ Susan Hannah~ 1827~ Eliz Emma~ 1831~ & Mary~1834. I am anxious to find ANY connection of MARIA with the family as~ since her birth in London~in 1820~ she is not mentioned in any of their family history~ until her wedding day. Thos~ his wife & three other daughters emmigrated to NZ in 1840. I have Maria's full susequent history~as well as her father's. I would love to see Bolton family Barben history~ possibly in 1826-1840

My mother Elizabeth Skarratts was sent to Edenfield from Manchester when she was 10+ during the blitz. She lived with a woman above the shop " H Pickup MGI" a merchandise & provisions store. I have one photo of it. Does anyone have any more information on it~ whether it is still there~ or what is there now~ what the lady's name was during the war? Any news would be much appreciated. Thank you.

  My Garvin family lived at 7 Chapel Street in the 1881 Census for Radcliffe, but I can not find the street on a map? Do you have any idea where it is?
