Etchells from Manchester, England
I am looking for information about my great-grandparents, James and Margaret Etchells from the Manchester area, moved to USA in or about late 1800's early 1900's.

Re: Etchells from Manchester, England
My maternal grandparents James and Lily Etchells came from Manchester to settle in Pawtucket, RI. They came - James in 1911, Lily in 1913 with young James 2 years old. Most likely not who you are looking for.

Hi, We are definately on the same line, James Etchells was my Great, Great Grandfather, he married Sarah Jolly in Oldham and went on to have Willy Etchells who married Kate Taylor who went on to have William Etchells (my Grandfather) in 1923. Please get in touch.
Regards,
Ruth.

Nice, I don't have your Grandfather in my list of children. Since I have not had much luck in my research on this line it is not uncommon to have missed persons. I and my mother have tried to write her cousin Edith "Katy", but have not received an answer yet. We are hoping she is still alive, since we have not received the letters back. Do you have a copy of an article on William Etchells death around 1996 in Derby? Heard he was either heading to or coming from a soccer game.

Hi,
Yes I can help with those details, Edith Etchells is my Grandmother.) She was married to William Etchells who yes, unfortunately passed away. His father was Willie Etchells who married Kate Taylor. Willie's father was James Etchells who was married to Sarah Jolly. I believe that Willie had a brother Richard and also a sister Maude. If you wish to contact me again, I would like to hear from you as I think we a definately related somewhere down the line! I have been passed some of your correspondence from my Gran and must apologise for the delay in replying.

I am so glad to hear I did not upset someone in England. Many years ago we got a phone call stating the person would send me something by the post, but it did not arrive. Then all my letters after that did not get answered. I started this project to make a nice memory book for my mother. I wanted to included a little longer Family Tree. Next thing I knew I am hooked on Genealogy. My email address is: ladyfelix@sbcglobal.net and I can send you what I have learned or what I have been told.

Re: Etchells from Manchester, England
Hi. Do you know when James and Margaret were born? My line of Etchells originated in Droylsden which used to be a tiny village but has now been swallowed up in Manchester. I have a James Etchells in my "wider" family tree, born 1857. I've been adding a lot of additional Etchells running from James Etchells b: 1772 = Hannah Hedson b: 1770, Droylsden, so if you would like any further info pse don't hesitate to contact me.

Re: Etchells from Manchester, England
James and Lily are my wife's grandparents. Her father is their son James. Would be interested in any informationyou may have. I believe that James parents were Robert and Elizabeth (Beaty). Lily's parents were Thomas Reynolds and Ellen (Sixsmith) Reynolds.
