Please let me share this with you.
I've just had a good chuckle, Edward is a journeyman sawyer in 1851 lodging in Tox Park.
I had a contact quite a few years back who had John 21 lawyer, living in the Forest of Bowland, father woodsman.
They asked where would he have studied to be a lawyer and qualified so young. Hello??
What a put down for them when I explained he was a sawyer.
Ho Hum.
Thanks

Thank you for looking and the answer is maybe . By 1880 he would have been 51 so maybe thats possibly. Thanks for information

Does that mean that you DO or you DON'T have the censuses. Best to say so before they all go for their look ups!

Dear Mary;
At this time I am unsure I need anything beyond what has been sent to me.This data plus known information has firmed up my lines.
For my STRANGE line I would like to find out marriages of the children . Thank you for your interest and help .

Possible
Eliza A Strange married Arthur F Dodd 1920 Liverpool, Register Office or Registrar Attended
Another possible, although she would be 41 when she married
Marie Strange married Roderick D Macintyre Wavertree, Holy Trinity 1931.
Maybe not since Marie isn't at home with the family in 1911, but I don't see a death either.
