Find Ancestors

I have got my grandmothers birth cert. born Annie Postlethwaithe,3sept1895 reg 1st nov1895 by her "sister" M.J.Postlewaite.her mother Charlotte Emma died on October27.
I have death cert for charlotte emma,
birth cert.Annie plus Arthur 12 may 1893
Mum formerly McKinstry
I have tracked Annie and Arthur in a workhouse and then Annie in a home. Sorry this is all in Barrow.
On death cert it said wife of Thomas Postlethwaite but I cant find a death in1895 can some one find a marriage
Arthur went to Canada to work with and live with his brother in law ( on census)Sarah ann must be another sister but was she a postlewaite or McKinstry
Charlotte died aged 35yrs. so I think she had some other children apart from Arthur and Annie but what name did they come under
Who was M.J Postlewaite (daughter) present at death
Can any of the souls out there help me
thank you

I cant find a death of Thomas within 9 months of Annie's birth.
Only Mum is on Arthurs birth cert.This is what made me think. because she was dead before Annie was Reg. this was done by sister age?????
Thank you ViviennexxYngxxNghymru I think you may have found M.J. Do you think this was her maden name or she was married to a Mc Kinstry

M.J. reg. annie,s birth could she be six at her mothers death and her sisters birth

DOBSON John Edward Lancaster 8e 1369
POSTLETHWAITE Sarah Lancaster 8e 1369

Freewheel, it said McKinstry on her death cert but we are not sure if this is her maiden name or another married name as the children she had under Postlethwaite she was already in her thirties. We think we may have found some earlier children.

Thank you ViviennexxYngxxNghymru

Maybe the Dobson/postlethwaite marriage would be of help,also maybe to find the Dobsons on 1911 before they went to canada..

Can you give us thomas's occupation from one of the birth certs? No marriage so far between 1860-1890, however there is a thomas on the census with a wife elizabeth. Ignore that, just realised you only have fathers name on arthurs cert, unless there is an occupation given?

The only birth I can find for a charlotte mckinstry is on family search in 1859 in armagh ireland. There is nothing coming up for a marriage between her and thomas postlethwaite from 1860/90, and no other census records that I can find. If the birth for mary jane is correct, and it seems to be, then why can't we find a mary jane and mother on the 1881/91 census?? Back to the drawing board.

That looks good Hoping, no father on birth certs.
Widow of Thomas Postethwaite an Iron Moulder Journeyman was on Charlotte Emma death cert.
Maybe we can find them under the other spelling

I cant find Thomas Postlethwaite death in 1895 as Annie was born in September it would have to be the same year

If that Mary jane Mckinstry is right,which of course is only guessing,then she would have been 16 not 6 in 1895,so where does the age 6 keep coming from?

Maybe Thomas Postlethwaite died years before,or she just left him, and she just kept having kids,never remarried and reged them under that surname,as my greatgran did with all her brood of illegitimates,including my gran.
