(Res: Hollingshead Street)

Note that a few properties above Dorothy Eadsforth.......is an Alexander Eadsforth age 30, James Eadsforth age 2 and Nancy age 25. There might possibly be a family connection.

ADDED.........

It seems that Alexander Eadsforth is the brother of Doroth's second husband Thomas Eadsforth.

Alexander married Nancy Slater......(Apart from the 1841 census, she obviously preferred to be called Ann)

Alexander and Ann (Nancy) were the witnesses attending Ellen Norris's marriage.
