Sniddles Head Farm, Quarnford, Staffs

[dolly]

Could anyone help me find out who was living at Sniddles Head Farm in Quarnford, Staffs at the time of each of the censuses please. I'm trying to trace back as far as possible for my grandmother who is still living aged 92. She was born there and would be very interested. I have sent her a lot of the family tree info I have gathered and she is loving reading it. It would be great if anyone can help me with this. Thankyou.

That's all I have. My grandmother's name is Wood and her parents Wood & Beswick if that helps: The Nadens are also related so the family have been there throughout. My grandmother lives on her own and I live abroad. She is finding it all very interesting and is giving her something to look forward to at 92 so I really want to find out the information for her.

Can't find anything else on Sniddles Farm, but did find this for a Mary Beswick from Quarnford:-

The only ones I could find in 1911. Mind youm the current 1912 census index is terrible for searching address or house names. The new Ancestry and The Genealogist index will be much easier.

Thankyou very much That's fantastic!! Need to sit down and go through it all now....Thankyou so much for your time

[dolly]

I have sort of sorted my family out...I think.
Would anyone be able to help me with the Naden/Nadin, Warrington connection please.
Mary Naden in 1841 census aged 35 was my great x 4 grandmother
Her husband isn't there but in 1851 he is....John Nadin aged 51 and his wife Mary aged 47
Also in 1851 is their son, Philip (my great x 3 grandfather) who married Caroline (?possibly nee Warrington)
They are not living at Sniddles Head in 1861, but I do have this census which looks like them but as Warrington not Naden:

1861 Census:
The Cottage, Winkle, Cheshire
Philip Warrington 26 Head Linen Draper Quarnford, Staffs
Caroline Warrington 30 Wife Wildboarclough, Chester
Ann Warrington 6 Dau Wincle, Cheshire.

They did have a daughter, Ann (my great great grandmother) who married Isaac Beswick in 1886. I can't find her in 1871 and she is not with her parents who are living at Sniddles Head....now Naden not Warrington
but she is living with them at Sniddles Head in 1881 (Ann Warrington aged 26).
She is registered as Ann Nadin Warrington in her marriage to Isaac and her father, Philip Warrington

I don't recognise any of the surnames in 1901 or 1911 but my grandmother was born in 1919 and her christening is registered Sniddles Head in 1920. Her parents were Annie Beswick & Ernest Wood (Annie was the daughter of Isaac and Ann)
Annie & Ernest were married in 1914 so maybe moved into Sniddles Head then
