Hi Chris
I know yours is an old post, but I thought I see if you are still interested.
My mumr (who lives in Sydney, Australia) is the grand daughter of Ralph Burgess (the son of Samuel Burgess & Elizabeth Booth).
My Mum remembers Ralph and the foundry quite well, having spent some of her early years there.
I googled Ralph Burgess & family and found (1) your post which I'm answering and (2) the wesite: http://blacksmiths.mygenwebs.com/cheshire-1.php
which you may have already found.
Regards Steve (in Auckland NZ)
