Thanks Sue the 1861 one looks very promising as the families lived in the St Clements area until 1900's !!! In fact there are still distant relations in the area now !!! I will work on all this info.............thank you everyone for your help........sometimes you look at so many censuses you 'can't see the wood for the trees' Gill

But George's occupation is labourer Ann White abt 1812 Manchester, Lancashire, England Wife Manchester Lancashire Ann White abt 1846 Manchester, Lancashire, England Daughter Manchester Lancashire George White abt 1819 Manchester, Lancashire, England Head Manchester Lancashire James White abt 1851 Manchester, Lancashire, England Son Manchester Lancashire John White abt 1844 Manchester, Lancashire, England Son Manchester Lancashire Thomas White abt 1855 Manchester, Lancashire, England Son Manchester Lancashire Sue

Thanks Sue and Elaine..............I will try those. I am keeping the Wainwright in mind it could be mother's maiden name He has signed himself Thomas Wainwright White...on Joseph's marriage cert 1905 when he was a shippping clerk Gill

Joseph's mother's name was Fanny nee Archer

TWW wasn't married in 1871, yes I have found his wife Fanny in 1871..but of course that is no help I have found a Thomas WILCOCK White in 1871 with a father George.I am wondering if he changed his middle name............I am clutching art straws now after so much searching

You say you have Josephs birth certificate - what is his mothers name?

1871 another possibility Ann White abt 1828 Manchester Wife St Jude Lancashire Geo White abt 1825 Kent, England Head St Jude Lancashire Thos White abt 1853 Manchester Son St Jude Lancashire sorry cant read Georges occupation Source information: RG10/4033 Registration district: Manchester Sub-registration district: Ancoats ED, institution, or vessel: 39 Folio: 85 Page: 6

Have you tried tracing for others in the family for 1881? I couldn't find a Thomas for 1881, but could for 1871 and 1891. When I tried another member, he was down as 'Thos' Anne

Here he is in 1881 so people can see his age: Household: Name Relation Marital Status Gender Age Birthplace Occupation Disability Thomas WHITE Head M Male 26 M'chester, Lancashire, England Foreman Carrier Fanny WHITE Wife M Female 22 York, England Joseph WHITE Son Male 1 M'chester, Lancashire, England Source Information: Dwelling 16 Rowsley St Census Place Beswick, Lancashire, England Family History Library Film 1341959 Public Records Office Reference RG11 Piece / Folio 4019 / 42 Page Number 18 Rose
