John Report 27 May 2011 20:07

I'm stuck around my great (3) grandfather Edward, shoemaker, born in the village of West Bradford (near Clitheroe). This straddles the Lancashire/Yorkshire border. He married Ellen Fell in 1850,. I can't find any trace of him, family or siblings in the 1841 census (inc. common variants). Thanks in advance
John

If the above is correct, he has a brother called Sylvester, 1839, who should be easy to find in 1841 (he is alive in later censuses)

Barry Report 27 May 2011 20:47

I think patchem has the correct birth as Waddington is very close to West Bradford and Clitheroe and not near the city of Bradford Yorks

On familysearch.org there is a marriage in Waddington between a Edward Clough and Alice Duerden 18 October 1817

Just to repeat, West Bradford is near Clitheroe (and Waddington is about a mile away) and no where near Bradford, Yorkshire.
Possibly John can get back to us with the wedding certificate?
And I thought he could look up the siblings in IGI (family search) himself.
