	"in Upper Conranlt Harpswikey Lancaster Manchester " speaking as someone who grew up 9 miles from Manchester, I do have to say that this makes absolutely no sense at all. Where did you find this???? It's an absolute garbage transcription!! Maybe I could read what is really written there! Unless they lived close to William ............ safc posted the 1901 census for him. Look at the address :-) 1901 England, Wales & Scotland Census Transcription 28, Upper Conran Street, North Manchester, Prestwich, Lancashire, England William Tunstead Head Married Male 60 1841 Ireland Tailor
