Hi janice, yes i can see that but why is mary called france and yet john is corner. do you think that thomas corner could have married marys mother and she already had been married to someone called france ? love linda x x

perhaps she had a fling with a cousin or because she as had child out of wed lock father made her change name only thing is she is still living with him so couldn't have been bad fall out Jeanette

Just had a look at the 1871 image properly and not the transcription. The daughter is Mary France, not Mary France Corner. She's also down as unmarried. Janice

jeanette you were right. on the 1851/61 the father in law is richard france so thats right but i dont understand the switch in names ? any ideas anyone - love linda x

oops deleted last reply as i think I was getting confused sorry Jeanette

hi jeanette perhaps it is too late at night for me but if france was marys mothers maiden name then how come on the 1871 she is mary france and yet her brother is john corner and why would she call her daughter elizabeth france ?love linda x

thanks jess - how come we are all up so late ? i have a busy day at work tomorrow so cant settle - how about you ? love linda x

brimelow/Sharrock marriage View Record Thomas Brimblow 1894 Jul-Aug-Sep Leigh Lancashire View Record Thomas Brimelow 1894 Jul-Aug-Sep Leigh Lancashire View Record Ann Sharrock 1894 Jul-Aug-Sep Leigh Lancashire

wonder if you could help to to tie these people in. on the grave stone for ANN SHARROCK born 1874 died 1896 aged 22 years it states she was the wife of THOMAS BRIMELOW but also on the gravestone it has MARY ROTHWELL died 1923 aged 43 and JAMES ROTHWELL died 1960 aged 80 so both born c1880 but i have no idea who these people are ? love linda x

Janice. EUXTON - that would explain why it had been mistranscribed as EVERTON . wonderful. i was hoping it was something like that thank you so much love linda x

thanks everyone. i can see where i went wrong. the eldest daughter elizabeth france - i thought that france was supposed to be frances you know as a middle name . so elizabeth was marys daughter . do you think mary was mary corner and then married someone called france and then married john sharrock ? thanks for your help love linda x
