hi jess sorry did not reply sooner,but only got back last night from england i will do that and see what i get and will let you all know,and thank you so much for your help and all the other people,thank you also for your time as i no this name has been driving you all up the wall .joyce

*************************************************** Joyce the consensus of opinion, after much searching by me and others is this: You need to but a couple oF Certificates to help clarify things. 1) Name: Mellor, Joseph Rathbone Record Type: Births Quarter: June Year: 1894 District: West Derby County: Lancashire Volume: 8b Page: 480 It may or may not give the same info as Ada's ( i think it may say something different) --------------------------------------------- and this marriage cert Name: Bassindale, Elizabeth Record Type: Marriages Quarter: September Year: 1890 District: West Derby County: Lancashire Volume: 8b Page: 801 * before we can say that the two sisters were brought up in a different name to Bassindale, we need to establish that this was Ada's sister ................................................................................. Many people have given this thought over the last few days and think we have a sensible suggestion,(not just me) Jess x

hi jess sorry to bother you just wanted to know if you got certs my husband sent.im going to england tomorrow few daysbut my husband will look at my messages,thank you so much for all your time and effort,joyce

Hi, sorry to butt in, But what about 1871 census Salford William Bassendale b1802, with 3 grandaughters, Ada b1869, Louisa, 1860 & Elizabeth 1863. All were born in (H)Epworth, Lincs. If you've already discussed & dismissed this one, please forgive the intrusion. Helen

hi jess have sent certs will you let me no if you get them,and the answer to john bassingdale job he was a licence vichuvaller,i think thats the way its spelt in our time he was pup owner.joyce

Dancer, dont go there!!!!! Arghhhh.... Jess

I have two seperate marriage certificates that state Father deceased ... and two census's to say that the Father is still alive. One in fact WAS dead ... but the family included his name on the census .... the other one died in 1917 ... 16 years AFTER the census was completed. It IS possible that dead people are included on census returns. It depends WHO gives the information. It IS possible that Fathers are stated as being deceased on marriage certs, when they are in fact still very much alive. Hope this info helps everyone concerned. Dancer x

Although he was dead, what dies the marriage cert say about her father Johns Occupation? jess

Sorry Joyce, our messages crossed in the 'posting'. Lynne

Joyce Jess is asking you for the father of Ada (married to Samuel). Not the name of your mother's father! Lynne

This IS them on the 1901 census, with the first Ada, the one that died Ada Mary Mellor abt 1870 Manchester, Lancashire, England Wife Walton on the Hill Lancashire Ada May Mellor abt 1897 Walton, Lancashire, England Daughter Walton on the Hill Lancashire Jose Rathbone Mellor abt 1895 Bootle, Lancashire, England Son Walton on the Hill Lancashire Samuel Mellor abt 1870 Bootle, Lancashire, England Head Walton on the Hill Lancashire ------------------------------------------------------------- thier marriage Name: Bassindale, Ada Mary Record Type: Marriages Quarter: September Year: 1893 District: West Derby County: Lancashire Volume: 8b Page: 779 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Bassindale, Ada Mary 1893 September Marriages West Derby Lancashire Mellor, Samuel 1893 September Marriages West Derby Lancashire ------------------------------------------------------------------ I have also found a marriage i guess to be that of her sister (another Bassindale marriage in the same place) Reinforced by the fact that the couple called THEIR daughter ADA, which wasn't a very common name ---------------------------------------------------------------- I am not absolutely convinced that ADA was a born a Bassindale though, just a thought that keeps coming back to me.Backed by the fact that i cannot find her birth ------------------------------------------------------------- Joyce do you have the marriage cert for Ada and samuel? Does it say 'Formerly Bassindale OR Nee Bassindale' What it WILL tell us is her fathers name. What IS her fathers name please
