Trying to find Fairclough

Dear all I'm hoping to find information on THOMAS Fairclough (1825-1880) born Hulme, Manchester. He married Hannah Shaw (1826-1876) born Wakefield and they lived in HUDDERSFIELD and raised the following children: 1. John Thomas 1849 2. Mary Elizabeth 1851 (grandson to Thomas - John Edward ARMITAGE 1869 appears in '71 census) 3. Tom 1853 4. Ann 1855 (possibly married Edward THORP c1853, and had a daughter Lilly 1879) 5. Emma 1856 6. Ellen 1859 7. Charles Fairclough 1862 who was my Great Grandfather and married Martha Heeley. Unfortunately my uncle Douglas Fairclough had all the information and photos for the Fairclough family but he died in 1997 and all the family records were confiscated along with their possessions by a Dog's Home/Charity he and his wife had named in their wills !!! If you recognize any of the above names or dates, please get in touch. Thank you Shelley Chadwick Having added this information I am not getting any matches
