Holden Look Up Please

[Derek Atherton]

Hi,

Looking for William and Nancy Holden, both born Blackburn and aged approx 27.

Son John was born in Oswaldtwistle in 1940 (aged 1), though next children were born in Charnock Heath (Isabella 1842) /Charnock Richard (Lawrence 1844). So moved soon after birth of John!

Not yet found on 1851, but were back living in Oswaldtwistle (Heys) in 1861 - by then with 7 children!

Any help appreciated!

In case you still need this:
Residing at Moscow, Oswaldtwistle, 1841:

W. HOLDING, 28, collier
Nancy HOLDING, 27
Henry HOLDING, 4
John HOLDING, 1

There were 157 HOLDEN/HOLDINGs in Oswaldtwistle for 1841, by the way.

Margaret,

Imagine only 157(!) - Many thanks - strange address though isn't it "Moscow"?

Regards,

Derek
