Found this census entry last night. Walter Horrocks is the son of John Horrocks & Rachel Bolton. John Horrocks is my GG Grandfather's brother. BUT who is William H Horrocks ~ Cousin?
I found a birth entry in the Sept qtr. 1875 for William Henry Horrocks Manchester 8d 356
I've also found this:
Lancashire - Manchester - St George - District 15 - Page 6
1881 census - 61 Collyhurst Street, Manchester
William Horrocks - Head - 39 - Agent - Manchester
Ellen Horrocks - Wife - 35 - Manchester
Issiah Horrocks - Son - 9 - At school - Manchester
George Horrocks - Son - 7 - do - Manchester
William H Horrocks - Son - 5 - do - Manchester
Thomas Horrocks - Son - 1 - do - Manchester
So it's not that one ~ now, what would Sherlock Holmes do???
Hold the press, I've just had this message from Stan ...
Vanda, I have just realised who this is!! I dont know how i haven't figured this one out before but William H Horrocks would of been William Henry Rowbotham. For quite a bit i have been searching for William Henry Rowbotham in the 1891 census but he is MISSING, and i have also been trying to work out who William H Horrocks was, well now we have answered both questions.
Oooo don't you just love it when a plan comes together ROFL
