John Haworth Bury Lancaster
I am just starting research and so far mostly Internet based.
John Haworth married Rachel Thornley 18 May 1834, at Saint Peter Bolton Le Moors in Lancashire.
They had 8 children, Alice 1835, Anne, Mary, James, Joseph, Eliza, Robert 7 Feb 1847, Mary Anne, all christened at Saint Mary Bury, except Mary Anne who was christened at Saint John, Bury.
Robert was my Great Grandfather and a Shoemaker by trade.On his death Certificate it mentions his marriage toMary Sullivan at Tottington.However he migrated to Australia on the ship Melpomene departing Plymouth in 1882 arriving in Queesland Australia 1883.He travelled with Eliza (Carroll) hiswife and West George his son aged 3years who was my Grandfather.Eliza returned to England alone a few years later.
I have been unable to trace West's birth or either of Robert's marriages.
I have not applied for John and Rachel's marriage certificate yet so have not been back further.
Does anyone have any further information on John and Rachel's descendants or forebears? I would really appreciate hearing from them.
Thanks
