Re: A Double Whammy??
Hi Mal
Could it be a case of the Rustons ride again?
We have this on BCC
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/fa ... ton-Family
Josiah Ruston and a "son" Josiah who married under the name of Rollason it says.
In 1881 this Josiah jnr is living ith his wife next door to Joseph and Phoebe Taylor.
And 1861 has
Residence Detail
17 ROWLEY VILLAGE
Given Name Family Name Relation Condition Age
JOSIAH RUSTON Head Widower 56 yrs
JOSIAH RUSTON Son Unmarried 24 yrs
ANN RUSTON Daughter Unmarried 20 yrs
PHEBE RUSTON Daughter Unmarried 18 yrs
So I think that is the girls there, as Ruston and I presume if there is no father down on the marriages then either Lucy Rollason didn't kno or she forgot to tell her kids the name of their father before she died. There seems to be a brother John Rollason too ho could be the witness to his sisters' weddings.
What do you think?
