Birtwell Sutcliffe
(Jun 09
Red)
Seeking birth/baptism details from Parish records for my g.grandfather Birtwell Sutcliffe. illegitimate son of Alice Sutcliffe. Born 10 Jan 1837 in Accrington, Lancs.(just before civil reg.) The 1841 and 1851 censuses show he and his mother were living with Abraham Birtwell at Union Street Accrington. Birtwell is a very unusual first name, could Abraham Birtwell have been his father?
Birtwell Sutcliffe married Sara Handley 03/07/1858 in the Wesleyan Chapel Haslingden before he immigrated to NZ in 1859 on the "William Watson".
I would also like to find out where/when his mother Alice Sutcliffe was born (around 1814-1819) and the names of her parents.
Thanks. Margaret, Auckland NZ.

Alice & Richard Prout.
(Revised Jul 09 Green)
I am trying to find any information about Alice & Richard Prout and their daughters Joan & Edith (my 2nd Cousins). They all lived in Clayton Le Moors in Dale Street or very close to it. Alice was born in 1895 & Richard was born in 1900. Alice's maiden name was Holt. Possibly the daughter of John Holt 1870 and Mary Ann Pickering 1870. Joan born 1928 and Edith born 1932 ? Richard Prout was born out of wedlock to Eliza Ann Prout. Her parents were Edwin Williams Prout 1854 and Martha Emily Abraham 1856.
Joan I believe married a Gareth ????. I have no idea what happened to Edith but believe she married someone who was in the Army. I would be very pleased to hear from anyone who might be able to throw some light on this family so that I can complete another portion of my family tree
