Looking for Decendants of George Birchenough
George was born in June quarter 1861 in Macclesfield.
In 1871 census he was living on Pickford Street in Macclesfield. His father died in 1874 and sister, Mary, was married in 1876.
In 1881 census George lived with Mary and her husband and brothers and sister in the family home.
There is no listing for their Mother, Hannah, and it is feasible that she could have re-married. There are four possible marriages for a Hannah Birchenough between 1874 and 1881, and one in Macclesfield.
There is a marriage for a George Birchenough in Jun 1884 in Macclesfield. It may be possible that he married Rachel Swindells.
Is there anybody reasearching Birchenough who can help spread some light on decendant for George and what happened to Hannah.

Looking for Decendants of Thomas Birchenough
Thomas Birchenough was born in 1848 in Macclesfield. From FreeBMD there are two Thomas Birchenough, one born 1848 in Wolaston and another Thomas Garner born in Dec 1849 in Macclesfield. I can rule out the one born in 1848 and I am not certain that the other Thomas is the one I am researching either.
There are no clues on Familyserach site either.
In 1851 Census he was living in Lodgings with his father, Charles.
In 1861 Census his father married and started a family where Thomas was included.
In 1871 Census the family grow and Thomas still lived with them.
In 1881 his father had past away in 1874 and half sister, Mary married in 1876 and lived in the family home with his other half brothers and sisters. Thomas did not live with them.
There is only one Thomas Birchenough listed in 1881 and this is the one born in Wolaston.
There are no recorder marriages or deaths for Thomas.
There is one probable death for Thomas in 1888 in Oldham. I do know that one of his half brothers married in 1885 in Oldham and it is possible that Thomas moved there with them or near them.
If any other persons researching the Birchenoughs can spread any light on Thomas life I would appreciate your input.

Hannah Smith marraige to two person in 1852?
One of my ancestors is Hannah Smith, the marriage of interest to me is to Charles Birchenough on 10 June 1852, however, it appears like the same person also married a Charle Moss on 28th June 1852.
I know Smith is a popular name and there may well be more than one Hannah Smith, but what are the chances of two Hannah Smith's with father John Smith living in Saltersford-cum-Kettleshulme and both marrying a Charles?
Any comments to relievemy sanity will be greatly appreciated.

New lead on Charles Birchenough
I have found in 1841 census that there is a Charles Birchenough listed as being born 1826. From waht I can see it appears that he may be living with relatives rather than his own family. As the head is William (1816) married to Mary (1816) and have children Samuel (1836), Maria (1838) and Adam (1841).
Please can someone look up this census record for me.

Following a false lead from Ancestry.com for Benjamin Lansdown 1786 from Wiltshire
I was given a tip on Benjamin Lansdown parents from Ancestry.com. On verification I suspect this tip may not be true.
I have read with interest the article written about Ancestry.com on this web site.
I have Benjamin Lansdown born 1786 baptised on 10 September in Corsley, Wiltshire. The tip I was provided is his parent are Geroge Lansdown 1760 and Mary Weeks 1756.
I can not find any evidence that there is any connection between Benjamin and George. Further, George and Mary were married on 7 August 1797 at St Michaels, Bath.
On searching for children of George and Mary, I can find on child, Ann, born in 1790 with parents George Lansdown and Mary. Of course they could have had a child out of wedlock, but there could be another George Lansdown and Mary.
Can anyone spread any light on this for me.
Charles Birchenough born 1822 in Macclesfield
In 1851 census, Charles Birchenough 1822 and Thomas Birchenough 1848 are listed living with George & Sarah Beath and their daughter Ann, also living in the same houshold are Thomas Lowe, John Rothwell, Francis Wilshaw and William Wilshaw.
Charles is listed as Thomas's father.
I can not see any entry in 1841 for either Charles or Thomas.
Charles married Hannah Smith in 1852.
I have searched on Familysearch again without any luck.
Would like to find who are Charles's parents and who is Thomas's mother.

Revised query Seeking maiden name for Ann married to Benjamin Lansdown about 1870
Ann(maiden name unknown)(b 1849)married Benjamin Lansdown (b 1840) about 1870. Ann is listed in census 1871 as being married to Benjamin.
Ann and Benjamin had a son William R Lansdown born 1873.
To make things complicated in 1881 census Benjamin and William were lodging with a family Arthur and Silvia Skidmore and their daughter. A familysearch for William reveals Arthur and Silvia are his parents. This is not actually true.
Ann died in 1875 at age 27 in Somerset.
Can anyone tell me Ann's maiden name.

Seeking information on Frances Allaway
Francis Allaway born in quarter Dec 1890 daughter of William & Louisa. To my knowledge Frances was never married.
She had a son, Francis Sydney T Allaway in October 1913 in Cinderford. It is unknown who the father is.
She also had a daugheter, Evelyn around 1925. I can't seem to find her birth record. I understand she was registered as Evelyn Hawes/Howes. It is unknown who her father is. It is most probably that Evelyn and Francis have different fathers.
I understand that Evelyn married a Leslie/Lesley Evans. I can not trace the marriage.
I don't believe they had any children.
