Richard's son George, was born in Manchester on 5 Jan 1832.

He married Theresa Holdsworth BEARD (born in 1853 in Melbourne, Victoria) in 1876 in Walhalla.

His parents Richard Meadowcroft Whitlow and Sarah (nee Gardiner), I am not sure, could have lived in Lancashire.

Hope you can help, regards Rick Silverwood.

Richard Meadowcroft Whitlow did live in Manchester in the 1800's - I have not been able to find a birth or death date. He was a solicitor. I think the company was Radford & Whitlow or Whitlow, Radford & Whitlow. Not sure if the 2nd whitlow was a son or cousin. He had at least 6 children. As well as George Gardiner/Gardner Whitlow there was Edward Hardman/Hardmond Whitlow my Great Great Grandfather he died in Melbourne in 1870 aged 38. He played cricket for Manchester and aat least 3 first class games for Victoria. He married Charlotte Horn. They had 1 son. Richard Edward Whitlow who married Alice Sibly and their son Eric Meadowcroft Whitlow (My Grandfather).
George had about 7 or 8 daughters a few died quite young I believe in Walhalla. I think there was a second wife as well as Theresa Beard.

I have found out some more information. Richard was Born in 1794 and died in 1881. In the 1881 census he was living with his daughter in Lancashire Mary/Maud Frances Ross (I think). She married Gordon Ross. I think that Sarah died around about the 1770s.
Richard had 7 children.
Thomas

William Ernest
Sophia Louisa married Charles Barber Banning Post Master at Liverpool for about 48 years.
