Comment on BROADHURST of 1841 Cheshire by Gloria Broadhurst Osborn

Great Site!! My Broadhurst family left England in 1842 to America on the ship St. Lawrence out of Liverpool. They were all textile mill workers and settled in Philadelphia, and later the youngest, George (my gggrandfather settled in Howard and Montgomery Co, MD. In the 1841 UK Census I found my family of John & Sarah B. with children,Samuel, Elizabeth, John and George in Stockport but no birthplace. I’ve searched all through Lancashire and Cheshire. I need some help finding where born for these kids–George in particular. Any help would be appreciated. GBO

Hello Carolyn,

Thank you so much for the information, I really appreciate it, and thanks for taking a look at my web site. I see the family group on the Family Search pilot site. How do you know with certainty that this John is William’s father? Are these folks part of your family research? Looking forward to hearing from you.

hi
William was the son of John Broadhurst and Martha Rosson and was baptised 4 Aug 1782 in Chelford. John and Martha married 5 Nov 1779 in Prestbury. Siblings for William I have found:
Joseph bap 7 Sep 1777
Mary bap 24 Feb 1788
Thomas bap 16 Jul 1780
John bap 21 Apr 1793, all Chelford . Looking at the dates I suspect there are more children of John and Martha to be found.

Richard, my grandfather Charles T. Broadhurst was born in North Carolina in the 1890s (1895 I think).

Aloha Helen,
Thank you for stopping by BroadhurstFamilies.com. I don’t have any information about your Samuel Broadhurst or siblings but perhaps something will surface with our further research.
Regards

My Broadhurst ancestor Samuel b 1753 married Ann Sumner
and had several children born in the late 1700′s. Their children , born a few years later than your John Broadhurst in 1812, also lived and worked at Styl Mill near Wilmslow….suggests may have been cousins?

Do you know anything about Samuel or his siblings?
