I wouldn't say it was unusual. I have an ancestor who moved from Chester to Manchester to Liverpool so perhaps they moved with their jobs.

Also I couldn't find them anywhere on the street where they lived in Liverpool on the 1841 census (this was before they were transcribed online) I knew they lived there before and after the census as the children were christened in Liverpool and listed the same address.

I found them on the 1841 census living with their parents (presumably visiting or perhaps to have the baby at their parent's house)

Hi Cane, simple answer would be "no" (wish there was, would explain many of my lot's movements!)

Do you mean train travellers?? If so the answer is no.
Are you 100% sure it is the same family?
Do bear in mind that people moved all over the place for work back then.

Hi,
this might sound a silly question,but is there info on passenger lists from manchester to liverpool abt 1847+...i cannot work out why my edward walsh and wife margaret left hulme in manchester with their daughter margaret ellen(born 1847 hulme,died 1848.liverpool) they eventually came back to manchester where they had four more children.......on his daughters( margaret ellen's baptism notes his occupation is a labourerbut when he returns he is a slater.....could he have gone to liverpool to train
