Mawdsley of Formby

Thank you Jane,I would like any information that anybody can provide, in particular if any of them worked on the railway
Jane

1841 - William Mawdsley
Can't find him?


1851 census - Cockle Lane, Formby
Head - William Mawdsley - age 30. Rail lab born Formby, Lancashire
Wife - Ann - age 26 born Formby, Lancashire

1861 - Formby
Head - William Mawdsley - 40 Market Gardener born Formby, Lancashire
Wife - Ann - 35 born Formby, Lancashire

1871 - Liverpool Road (Cheap side), Formby
Head - William Madsley - 50 Ag lab born Formby
Wife - Ann - 49 born Formby
Nephew - John Pennington - 8 months born Formby

1881 - Cheapside, Formby
Head - William Mawdsley -  61 Fisherman born Formby, Lancashire
Wife - Ann - 57 born Formby, Lancashire
Son - John - 10 Scholar born  Formby, Lancashire

Obviously John is the nephew in 1871 - maybe they adopted him?

1891 - I couldn't find them so looked for possible deaths

William - June quarter 1890 - age 71 registered Ormskirk.
Ann - Sep quarter 1886 - age 62 registered Ormskirk
Jane

Henry Mawdsley

This one isn't so easy
1851 - there are 2

1 - Formby
Henry - 27 - ag lab born Formby
Wife - Ellen - 19 born Formby
Dau - Jane - 1 born Formby

2 - Formby
Henry - 28 Ag lab born
Wife - Margaret - 28 born
Son - Robert - 6 Scholar born Formby
Son - Henry - 5 born Formby
Dau - Mary - 2 born Formby
Son - William - 1 born Formby


So no idea which one is yours?
Jane

Jim,
William 1820, Henry 1824, Thomas 1827, Richard 1824, Jacob 1829,
Robert 1832, Mary 1838 and Alice 1840 are all children of John Mawdsley and Isabella Kirby. Jacobus is actually James (translated by a catholic priest for me). Your dates vary slightly from mine which I obtained from parish records at Preston Records Office. There are other children which you have not listed. Do you have them?
