Aloha,

Our branch of the family's story is typical of many; working Cheshire farms for generations and then with the rise of the Industrial Revolution working the cotton mills of Lancashire. With the start of the 20th Century it's across the Atlantic for a new life in America. Many settled in and around mill towns in the US; Dover, New Hampshire, Lowell, Massachusetts and Utica, New York. This website is dedicated to their many family members everywhere.

Four Broadhurst Girls Marry Four Howarth Boys

It’s not uncommon for families to marry into other families more than once. Is this four times? The Nellie Broadhurst listed in the chart is one of “The Eleven” and I wonder if “Jane Anna” is her older sister. Nellie was 12 years younger than Jane Ann, “Annie” as she was refered to. The wedding locations would also make geographical sense. Any thoughts out there? Does anyone have the other two couples in their family trees?
