Find Ancestors

I could not find the Richard of Westmoreland after 1861 .Could not find his death either,so he could have moved anywhere and could be hard to trace as there are so many with this name.
So am hoping we have the right Richard and the census was wrong,cannot prove that so think I have reached a dead end in my search or take all that you have found as being my Richard.
I will keep the thread on watch for a while in case someone has more info on a tree,but thank you so much for all your hard work and all the others who offer there help here on this site it is very much appreciate God bless.

if richard was married to agnes he may not of been free to marry again, could explain why no marriage to sarah can be found.I don't think Agnes was an in law because of the age gap.

Maddie

Hi Maddie Thank you for all your work the above all fit with things I have also recorded so do you think that the first mentioned census was recorded wrongly and Richard was married to Agnes and she was not an inlaw as started and that agnes and the daughter Elizabeth may have died pre 1911 or after.I am positive he did not marry my grandmother as she married many years later under her maiden name and there is no record of a marriage to Richard but she did have children to him and he died at her home.

I think the relationships in 1901 has not been correctly recorded, Robert is twice ages's age so unlikely to be in laws and the above marriage fits with Robert and agnes, just a thought

maddie

thank you Maddie have to log off today.

In the same family have just found a Richard Fisher born 1844 ulverstone and he was a miner also shown in 1861 census.Wonder if he married and had a son Richard ? getting confused now in case I have been following the wrong Richard, but the right family!

Hi MaddieI think that this was Richard Fishers father if I have the right Richard Fisher Still do not know who agnes fisher in 1911 census is married to .There is a Richard fisher married to Agnes Tyson in 1897 from Blackburn .which would possibly tie in but she is shown as a sister in law and not daughter in law in 1901
My Richard Fisher moved to Thorne Doncaster for work as shown in 1911 where he met my grandmother.

Thank you Catherine for your work done so far much appreciated
