2. Re: [Pots] TUNNICLIFFE UPDATE [1]
Hi John, I live half a mile away from Longton. Part of Heathcote road is now no more, only a few shops and a pottery factory. A new Tesco has just been completed, and the roads surrounding it has changed. My relatives lodged at 21 Heathcote Rd in 1871(census info), but this appears to be earlier than you want. Try a brilliant local website for local info and local maps. www.netcentral.co.uk/steveb/ and www.thepotteries.org/index.htm Good luck! Jean If you need to contact me, please do so direct as I am

4. Re: [Pots] Emigrating Olivers [ was Mellor ] [1]
Andy, If you are referring to Hannah Mellor, this may be a relation of mine. I can tell you that Enoch Mellor and Frederick G. Mellor came to Trenton and started the Cook Pottery. If memory serves me correctly (which it isn't what it used to be) Frederick G. Mellor was associated with Mellor and Venables pottery. Story goes that Frederick G. Mellor recruited potters from Stoke on Trent to work for him in the States. Some actually believed that Trenton was named after the English town, but it was not.

Hi Sue, I was bought up in the next village to Goldenhill,my parents are still there.Goldenhill is about 3 or 4 miles from Hanley and was in the registration district of Wolstanton.There was an orphanage at Penkhull,near to Newcastle-under-Lyme and I think that there was one in Newchapel.

Hi Jackie, I would actually like to be able to read any of the folios. I managed after great difficulty to open the Shropshire disc which contained Ashley from Staffs, but I just got file invalid from the Staffs list. Again Gordon has offered a refund but as with other listers I don't really want that , just to be able to open them up. I have tried in 'My Computer' and in Explorer and in Imageing and in Coral Photohouse all to no avail. I will have to try again but I think that I have tried all possibil

9. [Pots] LANDOR in Rugely [1]
I would be most grateful if a list member could help me trace a family named LANDOR, who lived in 'The Riddings', Rugely, in the 1930s, and possibly the 1940s. I recently 'discovered' a 1st cousin (twice removed), named Alan Wilson DUNCAN (b.1892), who served in the 2/8th Gurkha Rifles in India, and retired to England after the 2nd World War. In his military records, which I've seen at the British Library, he listed as his next of kin his uncle, 'R.H. LANDOR, The Riddings, Rugely' ( I don't know if 'The Ri

I too received a rather curt reply from him, I bought the census only to find that two weeks after there was a more comprehensive set, i asked what it would cost to purchace the missings discs, I was not given the opportunity to do so, just the price of the new complete set. I'm not to sure that i wou;ld use his service again. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jackie Russell" To: Sent: Monday, June 02, 2003 3:23 PM Subject: [Pots]

Sorry, I pressed send too earlier, but I was so excited! After I sent the other message I suddenly thought about looking in another piece for my errant Folios and found them in Piece 2009 Cheadle, which was even on a different CD. The Registration district clearly says Leek and the HO ref down the side says 2008, so it was just that Gordon has put them in with the wrong lot. My original question to him was if he could just let me know if they were lurking somewhere else, which they were, but if he had jus

Hi Michelle, Thanks for your reply. I have managed to find some more details. Arthur TUNNICLIFF b 25 April 1857 married Harriet SPALTON b.1858 in St.John's Church, Derby 15 June 1881.

Hi there, I doubt the address you are looking for is Horde Cane, could it be North Lane, or Norton Lane, which could be much more likely? Have another look at the address Kacky. This would also fit in with the fathers' jobs. Also try www.netcentral.co.uk. as there are some old maps of the Potteries there, and you may find the streets? you are looking for.
