Potty Report 7 Jul 2010 15:56

Tried looking for John's birth. This is the nearest:

Births Jun 1877 (>99%)

JOYCE John Joseph Manchester 8d 218

FannyByGaslight

FannyByGaslight Report 7 Jul 2010 16:01

Thats the only one I could see to fit Potty.

Susan Report 7 Jul 2010 16:07

Thaank you Potty and Fanny ByGaslight, I do have a copy of her 2nd marriage but it is in a box as I am in a middle of a move!

I supose the only thing I can do is order his birth certificate, but I have paid out for other certificates before only to end up with no connection!
What would you two advice?

Potty Report 7 Jul 2010 16:17

This looks like the one whose birth I posted - so your John is with the Glitheros in 1891, that birth can't be his

Susan Report 7 Jul 2010 16:20

even more confused now!!

FannyByGaslight

FannyByGaslight Report 7 Jul 2010 16:24

I really dont know here.


Try and find her on census with parents in 1851 and try tracking her forwards maybe?

Its not worth getting that Joyce 1877 birth as Potty has identified him on 1891.

Susan

Susan Report 7 Jul 2010 16:24

hmmm also found
John J Joyce 1875 Ormskirk Preston Lancashire

Potty

Potty Report 7 Jul 2010 16:37

yes, I saw that Ormskirk birth but didn't think anyone born Ormskirk would give a POB of Manchester. But you never know!

This is very frustrating! Can't find a Ryland/Joyce marriage and can't find a Mary Ryland birth, at least not in Warrington.

I think, Susan, you need to dig out that marriage cert. With Mary's father's name and occupation we might find her on the census.

Susan

Susan Report 7 Jul 2010 17:06

Potty, am going to hunt through those boxes as this is doing my head in!! and I bet yours and FannyByGaslight's as well lol
Back as soon as I locate the certificate.....

FannyByGaslight

FannyByGaslight Report 7 Jul 2010 17:27

Good,I am so pleased as I hate not getting anywhere as I am sure potty does.

May still have to get nowhere yet though..:)

FannyByGaslight

FannyByGaslight Report 7 Jul 2010 18:26

I am still getting nowhere.
Cant find her on 1851 with those fathers details...

Maybe have another look after dinner and a cuppa...

Susan

Susan Report 7 Jul 2010 21:50

Back again! Maybe these?

Births, all born Prescot Lancashire??
Mary Rylands 1843, Henry 1842
William 1844. Ann 1848, Jane 1852,
Found the above also other Rylands names on Lancashire BMD
This is what I have found so maybe if you can find the family on the Census's

FannyByGaslight

FannyByGaslight Report 7 Jul 2010 22:23

I am sorry,I cant find any of them for sure on 1851.

Only just found this thread, so not absorbed it. But might Warrington have been Cheshire, not Lancashire? Don't know if it makes a difference. I've always known it as Cheshire.
