Ethel & Edgar Brierley with Hiram Brierley
Posted by: Edward Brierley (ID *****5861) Date: January 01, 2003 at 14:28:08
  of 50

I think I found the information I have been looking for... The 1901 British Census states that an Edgar Brierley, age 19 (thus born in 1882), lived at 2 Shepherds Yard, Rochdale, Lancashire, ENG, and worked as a machine minder in a cotton mill. He lived with his 21 year old (born 1880) sister Ethel, who worked as a cotton card room hand, and his father, ... Brierley (name unknown) whom was 66 years old (born 1835) and was a retired iron worker. Tracing Ethel Brierley through the records at The Church Of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, I discovered the following information from the 1881 British Census, keeping in mind that Ethel Brierley would be 1 at this time, and her father would be 46 (Edgar would not yet be born)...

1881 BRITISH CENSUS:

2. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 1881 British Census, Copyright (c) 1999, 2002 FamilySearch (TM) Internet Genealogy Service, January 1, 2003, FHL Film 1341982 PRO Ref RG11 Piece 4106 Folio 106 Page 27, Family History Library, 35 N West Temple Street, Salt Lake City, Utah 84150 USA.

Thus, I am now looking for information regarding these people. I am especially looking for Hiram Brierley’s birth certificate, listed in the Saddleworth Civil Records of March 1838, volume 23, page l83; Edgar Brierley’s birth certificate, listed in the Rochdale Civil Records of June 1901, volume 8e, page 26; and Ethel Brierley’s birth certificate, listed in the Rochdale Civil Records of September 1901, volume 8e, page 31.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
