    1901 The following information has been found. Is it this Thomas who has remarried?
    18 New Bank Street, Ardwick, South Manchester, Lancashire
    Thomas BURGESS 50 Boot and Shoe Repairer born Altrinecham, Cheshire
    Jane BURGESS 34 born Coventry, Warwickshire
    William H BURGESS 23 Boot and Shoe Repairer born Rochdale, Lancashire
    Fredk BURGESS 8 born Manchester, Lancashire
    Florence BURGESS 5 born Manchester, Lancashire
    Thomas BURGESS 4 born Manchester, Lancashire
    1911 Also on the 1911 census, but son Henry only clue, and there's the second Thomas problem.
    21 Elton Street, Chorlton over Medlock, Manchester, Lancashire
    Thomas BURGESS 61 Boot Maker born Altringham, Cheshire
    Jane BURGESS 44 born Coventry, Warwickshire
    Henry 32 Boot Repairer born Southbridge, Lancashire
    Frederick BURGESS 18 Boot Repairer born Ardwick, Lancashire 
    Florence BURGESS 15 Unemployed born Ardwick, Lancashire
    Thomas BURGESS 14 Office Boy born Ardwick, Lancashire
    There was a Thomas BURGESS/Jane MORLEY marriage in the September quarter 1892
    in the Chorlton District, Lancashire
    A possible birth entry for Frederick could be Frederick James September quarter 1892
    Chorlton District, Lancashire
    There are too many Florences and Thomases born in the Chorlton District at
    about the right time to come to any conclusions about birth dates for these two children.
  2. 1861 Water Street, Castleton Within, Castleton, Lancashire
    1871 Mearfield, Castleton Further, Castleton, Lancashire
    1881 539 Rochdale Road, Manchester, Lancashire (possible) If this is the correct family, which I now believe it is, the children were - Annie 5, Henry 4 Earnest 3 and Thomas 3 months. There was a Servant with the family who was an Alice BURGESS aged 14 all of them were down as being born in Manchester - We do not think the servant was a child of Isabella as she was born before the marriage of Isabella and Thomas and Isabella would have only been 12 at the time of Alice's birth - Note the address of 539 Rochdale Road is the same as that of Elizabeth TICKLE né3 COUSINS and her husband Thomas on the 1891 Census, when they had two BURGESS children living with them, hence our reasoning that we have found the correct family.
    Registration for an Isabel COUSINS September quarter 1854, but in the St Ives District, Huntingdonshire whilst previous children were registered in North Witchford. Therefore, given that the name is not exactly the same we are unsure as to whether this is the right child.
    There was an Isabella COUSINS marriage in the December quarter 1876 in Chorlton District to a Thomas BURGESS; there are BURGESS children living with grandparents on difference census returns. 
  3. 1881 539 Rochdale Road, Manchester, Lancashire
    1891 539 Rochdale Road, Manchester, Lancashire . Living with aunt and uncle Elizabeth and Thomas TICKLE together with Elizabeth BURGESS (3) born Manchester, Lancashire
    1901 Not found
  4. 1881 539 Rochdale Road, Manchester, Lancashire
    1891 Not found
  5. 1881 539 Rochdale Road, Manchester, Lancashire
    1891 Not found
  6. 1881 539 Rochdale Road, Manchester, Lancashire
    1891 Not found
  7. 1891 65 Mere Lane. Castleton Nearer, Castleton, Lancashire. Living with grandparents Thomas and Elizabeth COUSINS. Also living with Thomas and
    Elizabeth was other grandsons, Walter DAVIES (18) born Manchester, Lancashire and David DAVIES (17) born Rochdale, Lancashire both Bootmakers. Boarding with them was Joseph  LIGHTBURN (20) Carter born Birkenhead, Cheshire
    1901 Not found
  8. 1891 Not found
    1901 65 Mere Lane, Castleton Nearer, Rochdale, Lancashire. Living with grandparents Thomas and Elizabeth COUSINS
    1911 Not found
  9. 1891 539 Rochdale Road, Manchester, Lancashire. Living with Aunt and Uncle, Elizabeth and Thomas TICKLE, together with their niece Annie 
    BURGESS (16) Boot Machinist, born Rochdale, Lancashire
    1901 42 Rochdale Road, Harpurhey, Manchester, Lancashire (possible). Living with Elizabeth and Thomas TICKLE was daughter Elizabeth TICKLE aged 13 born Manchester, Lancashire. Is this really the Elizabeth BURGESS aged 3 on the 1891 Census and because I believe at least her mother Isabella COUSINS had died in December quarter  1888 in Prestwich district, Lancashire aged 35 Thomas and Elizabeth had adopted her and she had taken the name TICKLE.
    1911 Not found

The idea of these charts is to give the information that we have found in the research we have done and put together and with the help of many other people who have contacted us over the past thirty odd years we have been researching our family. The idea is that you click on the Chart box in blue to be taken to the next family. There is now a large number of charts to be found and connections can be made to all the main families I am researching. If a chart has a box with the standard background it means that as yet I have not put the Chart on the Web.
To conform to the Data Protection Act all the Charts have been altered to exclude all details for living people other than the name.
