Broadbents of Liverpool and America COMPLETED

[SteveTurner]

Thank you so much for all that gardener.

One thing I did find today was that there's a lot of Broadbents that emigrated to America and the 28 year old could be another Owen (assuming not a mistake). There was someone looking for male Broadbents trying to tie them in with Saddleworth where some of mine were born. Friarmere was built as a chapel for those who couldn't make it to the parish of Saddleworth.

Owen Broadbent baptism. Although I hadn't found that, I had found his parents Charles and Betty. I have actually found 2 baptisms for Charles Broadbent, with father called John in 1796, one in Almondbury and the other in Friarmere. The 1841 census with Charles (born Saddleworth) and Betty has 12 children including Owen who was 12. The other children that I've found baptisms for are all Friarmere as well. So yes, pretty certain that's him you found.

I had found the Ann Leader Broadbent probate but not Owen's. I have Mary Alice (not found a marriage) and Janet Gertrude (with hints to marriage to Thom Vincent Walker not yet entered into the tree)

I'm wondering if Peter Leader married twice. Ellen (Goore) Leader died in 1805 and you mention Ann Leader in the presence of the marriage of Peter's daughter.

He may have been, or Ann might have been his daughter. IGI has James, Mary and Ann born to Peter and Ellen.

Yes that must be him.

I hadn't seen IGI before (Google is your friend) and have found the entries for James, Mary and Ann. Time to start looking for other entries...
