Sue Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 I know this is a bit late, but it could be the same family - same surnames involved anyway.. I have a William Lydiatt (1875-1930) in my tree who married a Nellie Dilliway (c.1876-1949, possibly Ellen b.1877) in 1896. In 1901 they have a daughter, Katie/Kate Lucy (1898-1957). The St Helens Deceased Search shows that the 3 of them were buried with Kate's husband Frances Albert Shacklady (1895/6-1955), a Sarah Isobel Whittingham (c.1888-1939) and a William Howarth (c.1866-1948). Grave reference is 37/994. The 1891 census shows that Nellie's parents were Samuel (c.1847) and Mary (c.1851) - probably the Samuel and Mary you've already listed. Two doors away is another Dilliway family: Henry (1854), apparently with a wife Eliza (c.1862). I haven't researched the family, but it looks like there might a connection of some sort. Best wishes, Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayelle Posted September 2, 2006 Author Share Posted September 2, 2006 Hi Sue, Many thanks for your message. It sounds as though you and I are researching the same tree. I have therefore left you a personal message and look forward to hearing from you again, either here, or through the line of communication suggested in my message to you. jayelle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Graham Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Message for Jayelle Newbie - It looks like you have landed on the name of my great-grandfather, John Dilliway. He had a son, also John, who was a cooper and who moved to Padgate, near Warrington, in Lancs. His son, also called John, was also a cooper in the family business, and he was my father. The family moved to a farm in Cheshire before WW2, which is where my father contracted 'Farmers' Lung Disease' - not a good way to die. I became and engineer, and now live in Horsham, West Sussex. Sorry, I have just seen what Newbie stands for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
