John Orrell, Bolton, Lancs 1850 - 1885

I am looking for a John Orrell born in or around Bolton in 1850. He married a Maria also born in 1850. After John's death in 1885 Maria went on to marry a W Howorth. John and Maria had 4 children; Margaret Alice b 1873 d 1929, James b 1876 d 1897, Alfred b 1879 d 1880 and my GreatGrandfather Thomas b 1881 d approx 1960. The family were living at 54 Cox Green, Turton in the 1881 census.

Thomas married Florence Spry and after a brief spell in the US and time as a POW in WW1, he settled in Cumbria.

I would be interested to hear from anyone who might recognise any of these names and might know who were John's parents and also what happened to Margaret or James - did they have any children?

Many thanks,

Terri Metcalfe
