Hi I wonder if anyone can find Nicholas Hollywell on 1851 & 1861 censuses. I have him born abt 1826 in lindale Lancashire. 1841 he's at Summer hill Cartmel aged15 appr. carpenter. He marries Margaret Coupland in 1870 in Manchester and 1871 is in Deansgate.. Nicholas Hallywell 45 warehouse porter Lindale with Margaret 50 Lindale. Margaret dies in 1877 I'd like to know where he was in 1851 and 1861. Many thanks Cynthia

1851 has a Nicholas Hollywell in Witherslack, Westmoreland but he was born 1798. However he was born in Lindale, Lancashire. Margaret

Thanks for these, but I don't think that's him. I can't see Clifton being mistaken for Lindale. The search goes on. Many thanks Cynthia
