Looking for

Molyneux's that were living in St. Helens.

 

My Grandfather was Thomas MOLYNEUX b. 1904 at Sutton Heath Road. He parents were Thomas & Ann (nee Gaskell) MOLYNEUX. Thomas was b.1867 to Joseph & Elizabeth MOLYNEUX.

 

Would be interested in any MOLYNEUX

 

Thanks

Hi Jane

 

I am David Molyneux, I am trying to find out about William Molyneux, He was my great grandad born approx 1900/1901, I think, He married Susan Bowles and in 1922 my Grandad, Harry Molyneux, was born in St Helens, They moved to Doncaster but returned to St Helens after Susan Bowles died in approximately 1936. Harry married Freda Revill, and my dad Brian Molyneux was born in 1945, his sister Jean was born approx 3 years later and Harry Junior was born 1952 approx. I am trying to find out more information regarding William Molyneux and then trace the family tree further back. Is it possible William was the brother of Thomas born in 1904? :iwonder:

:blink: I have a bit of confusion awaiting a bit of a discussion with my dad at the weekend but I have :

 

A Maggie surname could be Lynan who married a William Molyneaux - I think Maggie may have lived at Ashton St Fingerpost / Pocket Nook .

 

But with regards to dates etc I need to bend my Dad's ear on this.

I do have a William MOLYNEUX has a son of Thomas but from his first marriage to Kate CLUBB. William was born in 16th of June 1892 to Thomas & Kate Molyneux, they were living at 31 Bartons Lane, St. Helens. William was a profession footballer playing for Liverpool and then Luton in the 1920's, he stayed in Luton after his playing career ended and became a publican.

Not sure if you are still on the MOLYNEUX trail, but I am just starting out. I can offer Sarah Ann MOLYNEUX, born 1877, to Alice and William MOLYNEUX. I think William was born about 1830/33. On Sarah Ann's birth certificate he is shown as a coal miner. The family lived at Sutton, St Helens.

 

William and Alice had children - John (1866), Margaret (1869), Jane (1871), Alice (1873), Emma (1875), Sarah Ann (1877) and Thomas (1879). We think that this Thomas married Alice Ann Whittle.

 

Hope this is of use

I have a George Molyneux who was married to Mary Rimmer at St Anns, Rainhill on 2 Jan 1861. In 1881 they are living at 350 Park Rd, Parr, St Helens. George is 58 and a publican. He was born at Whiston. Mary Rimmer Molyneux is 62, and born at Ditton. Living with them are two nephews, George Abraham, 15, an engine winder born Prescot and Henry Miller, 9, scholar. George Abraham's mother was Elizabeth Rimmer Abraham, the sister of Mary Molyneux.

 

In 1891, George Abraham is living at 350 Park Rd as the head of the household. He is 25, single, and a Railway Shunter. Living within the household is Martha Miller, aunt, widow, 50, housekeeper, born Roby. Jane Stokes, servant, single, 25, Gen Dom Serv, born at Bold. Elizabeth Rimmer, Cousin, single, age 9, scholar and born at ?.

 

There is no mention of George Molyneux and Mary Rimmer Molyneux in the household in 1891. Do you have any information on George or Mary in your research.

Do You Know what your George's fathers name was? I also have a George Molyneux born Whiston c 1822, but he married a Mary Strettle in 1847 and they had 4 children

Ann b 1847, Joseph b 1849, Margaret b 1851 and Jane b 1853. I have them living in Park Rd. on the 1871 census (although it does say they were all born in Parr, but censuses were ofton wrong about birthplaces). My George's fathers name was Joseph and his mother was Jane.

Sweet Isis,

 

I believe we have the same individual. Most men would remarry after the death of their wife, if not to take care of the children, then to keep their little toes warm on a cold winters night. There is quite a bit of this in the Abraham family that I have found so far. There are also a few cases of my female rellies getting remarried after the death of their husbands. On the 1881 census there was a Joseph Molyneux living just a few doors away from George and Mary. My first thought is that this is the son of George and his first wife Mary. Do you have any proof of this in your research.

Yes Larry, Joseph is the son of George - with Mary Strettle - Joseph was my great-grandfather. We assumed that George and Mary were still George and Mary nee Strettle on the 1871 and 1881 censuses - obviously we assumed wrongly. I will try to found out if George was a widower when he married Mary Rimmer, it seems likely to me as George would have been 38ish and Mary Rimmer 42 when they married.

Thomas and Erina were married at St Nicholas, Sutton on 3 February 1923.

 

Thomas MOLYNEUX (8 November 1898) and his son, Stanley (2 September 1923) were living at 236 Jubits Lane on the 1939 Registration.

 

The GRO death index shows Thomas death registered in March 1991
