Hi :

I have a couple of requests.

In 1866 Allen and Hannah (Ann) Sykes were living at Stamford Road Mossley
with their offspring Eliza Ann and Joe.
If the 1861 census for Mossley is indexed, could someone please check if
they were in Mossley? In 1851 Allen - born 1839, was with his widowed
mother Martha in Liverpool, but they originated from Honley. Martha may have
moved to Mossley too. I have been looking for the gapin the history of this
family for years and kust discovered their sojourn in Liverpool (why
Liverpool, she asks?)

Which would have been the most likely church for their offspring to have
been christened? Joe was born in 1866, Ben in 1872.

Does anyone have access to the Mossley PR's and could do a lookup for me.

I'm coming to England in a couple of weeks and will be in the
Oldham/Saddleworth area in early May for a week or two- so I'm trying to get
some of my loose ends sorted before I come. Then it will be on to the
Buckley's, Kenworthys etc. in Saddleworth - oh joy!

Thanks so much and regards,

Elaine in Toronto
