Lynn, the 1891 census has a Thomas Hargreaves Blunt, age 16, son of Jonathon & Sarah Blunt, living in Bury, Lancashire. Do you think there might be a connection? Margaret

Searching for the birth record of my ancestor but not having any luck. 1901 Census records say she is born in Bolton, Lancashire, Her marriage cert to James Thomas Kay in 1897 states she is 21, a spinster, living at 29 Folds Road, Bolton. Her father is not a blunt it states he is James Hargreaves (Collier). marriage witness hold no clues as all from her husbands side of the family. Not located prior to 1901, any help appreciated. Thanks Update: sorry her name is LOUISA BLUNT
