I am researching the Hallam family from the Manchester area. The earliest member I have is John Hallam born 1801, married Sally or maybe Sarah, unsure as to when. They had 6 children John b 1829, William 1824, Mary 1827, Martha 1836, Samuel 1836, and Jane 1845. The one I am most interested in is John who had 9 children one of whom is my Great Grandfather Thomas Henry Hallam, born 1862 in Manchester. If there is anyone who can help with my research I would be most grateful

Hi Sheila_Tandy

I Have Hallams from Manchester also but have not gone back that far yet (early 1800s) have you any later info on your Hallams please
Thanks
Regards Tracy

I have relations who were the Hallam family who came from Stockport - Please see my site to see if you can find any links. I have not gone back as far as you.

I am related to Hallsm's from Stockport, Lower Bredbury - I do not know if you have any family that relate to mine.

Please take a look at my Family tree and see if any overlap onto yours
bye for now
Sheila

Sheila,
I am researching my past relatives who have the Hallam family included. Most of them seemed to come from Derbyshire to Stockport and I have still a lot of work to do. I am waiting for the next census before I can carry on. If you wish to look at my site, please feel free. I have not gone as early as yourself so I do not know if any of them are related, thank you.

Hi Sheila

I think there is a strong likliehood that my Hallam family is related to yours. I have a John Hallam baptized in Manchester 5 July 1801 son to John Hallam and Mary Wedioe. They also had three other children Edward, George and Mary Ann and I am descended from this George. I find it striking that the forenames names you give are almost all common in every generation in George's descendants up to the present day. These are John, Mary, Samuel, Jane, Thomas and Henry My first name is Henry after my father, great uncle etc. I named my son Samuel after my grandfather Samuel Hallam who was born 14 March 1859 in Manchester to a John Hallam, son of George.. My cousin who lives here in British Columbia as well is named John Thomas Hallam after a long line of John Hallams and Thomas Hallams

I would like to send you three charts in pdf formst which provide details on the family of John Hallam and Mary Wedioe and their descendants but you have not provided your email address. You should be able to find my email addre4ss in my profile and if you email me I will email you back the charts with details on several hundred individuals. I tried to send them as attachments here but Ancestry.com blocks pdf files and I find gedcom files too akward in identifying links and relationships.

In one of your postings you mention Northwich in Cheshire. By coincidence I was visiting friends there at the end of September.
