Searching for a marriage, Thomas Entwistle/Mary, no luck yet, the below baptism may give the place to look.

Baptism: 2 Sep 1821 St Peter, Bolton, Lancashire, England
William Entwisle - Son of Thomas Entwisle & Mary
Abode: Great Bolton
Occupation: Spinner
Baptised by: H. Richardson, Lecturer
Register: Baptisms 1820 - 1822, Page 190
Source: LDS Family Search

The above William's age doesn't match with the William on the 1851 census, could be the wrong age on the census or the above William died and the next son was also named William?

Thanks Bert, will have a look at your find

I found this one for, which seems the closest match (census shows b. 1831) for James Entwistle:

Baptised: 31 Jan 1830
Bolton-le-Moors, St Peter, Lancashire, England
Father: Thomas Entwisle
Mother: Mary Entwistle
Abode: Great Bolton
Father Occupation: Spinner

I have found an entry for a marriage for Thomas Entwisle and Mary Taylor, which would be just before they had all their children - although, doesn't match your baptism record - but matches the children on the census: William b. 1827, James b. 1831, Joseph b. 1833 and John b. 1835

Marriage Date: 29 Nov 1826
Parish: Bolton-Le-Moors
Groom: Thomas Entwisle
Bride: Mary Taylor
Residence: Bolton-le-Moors, Lancashire

I need to search for the film for the above though....

I have plotted out most of the younger generation late night like MaryA mentioned, linking John Entwistle b.1877 with siblings and their spouses. Many live close to each other and wills/probate also show family connections.

The ones I still am unsure about is Sarah Entwistle b. 1863 and Mary A Entwistle b. 1866. Sarah does actually live with her father John Entwistle (b. 1835) on the 1901, who is widowed - along with her sister Minnie. Both Sarah & Minnie then marry and 1911, Sarah is then Sarah Schofield (m. Samuel James Schofield). There is a will for Sarah Schofield, which mentions Stanley Ralphs - this is Mary A Ralphs' (nee Entwistle) son, so Sarah's nephew. Mary A Entwistle & her husband (Richard Ralphs) actually are on the 1891 census with most of the family: RG12 | Piece: 3118 | Folio: 89 | Page: 15

I am pretty happy with the 1891 census above, as John Entwistle b. 1877 occupation: Assistant Flour/corn (which links to 1901 - Corn & Flour Dealer) and John Entwistle b. 1835 Head: Clogger

John Entwistle b. 1835 married Mary Parker 02 Feb 1862 (the MC you also found)

My issue with Sarah & Mary A Entwistle. I can't seem to match them up with the mother maiden name of Parker, unlike the rest of the family. The date of marriage is before both Sarah & Mary A are both, yet I can't match Parker with them.

Any ideas on Sarah & Mary A Entwistle?!

Just hoping I haven't gone wrong with Mary Parker...but I feel happy with the 1891 census and the family that are on this one. Then the 1881, I equally feel comfortable with as siblings/ages all match and father occupation is expected.

Thanks

Yes, seen the marriage on Anc, unfortunately inconclusive, filed for later use if need be.

The link for William Entwistle, Baptised Sept, 1821, burial Aug, 1822. if needed later.

Nothing for Sarah & Mary Alice. The first 2 children in the marriage, perhaps unregistered, though would expect a baptism somewhere.

Thanks for the link Bert

Will keep searching for Sarah and Mary A Entwistle

Thank you,

Think I have found Sarah and Mary A Entwistle

Flash of inspiration....check the spelling of their surnames!!!

Mother Maiden Name: Parker

ENTWISLE, SARAH
1863 M Quarter in BOLTON Volume 08C Page 355

ENTWISLE, MARY
1865 J Quarter in BOLTON Volume 08C Page 358

I feel better now!! Off to do a little happy dance until I find something else that could throw all this out of the water!!!

[Bertieone]

Well done.

Thanks Bert

Found the Baptism record too and John occupation is "Clogger", so hopefully the right track

Thank you for your help,
