Alexander Thomson & Family
Alexander Thomson was a professor of theology at the University of Edinburgh; I have not yet established where he was born, and that is part of my purpose for posting. He married Emma Jane East (b 1819, Birmingham) and they had 5 children: Emma Morell Mackenzie Thomson b 1844, William Alexander East Thomson 1845, Emily Gertrude Thomson 1845, Ann Baldwin Thomson 1848-1932 (my great grandmother), and Helen L (Nellie) Thomson. At the time of the 1881 census, he was living in Chorlton upon Medlock,Lancashire, which I understand was incorporated into Manchester at some point after that. I would like any information at all on Alexander and especially his son William. Emma, Emily, and Nellie had no children--Ann was the only sister who did, and she died young. Any descendants of William out there? |

Ethel Violet Green
Anyone with any info re the above lady who we believe was born 1906, we also believe she had a brother John and they were in Manchester 1934/35. Not sure where from originally but possibly Ireland? She claimed to be of the Roman Catholic faith. If you have any info no matter how small would love to hear from you as we have hit a real brickwall with this part of our family history search.
thanks in anticipation, win |
