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 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.

BROADHURST of 1841 Cheshire

In 1841 Cheshire there are 522 BROADHURSTs listed in the England Census as found at FindMyPast.co.uk. 268 males and 284 females live in the 10 Registration Districts as shown in the chart below.  There may very well be more individuals that were perhaps not recorded in the Census or listed at FindMyPast. As an example, I know of one 96 year old William Broadhurst who shows up in the Ancestry.com records but not in FindMyPast.
