I am trying to find two john taylor's around the manchester area one would be about 40 in 1891 and the other would be around 60 his father around who was married to mary ann taylor. I know this is not an easy search but i thought i would try anyway -you never know! Roseanne

Thank you Angela It does look very possible i will try and find out more information.I do not think john was married on the 1881 census so if he married around 1891/2 it looks very promising. Thank you Also, my daughter is called charlotte - i hope it is them. Roseanne
