Hello Everyone,
I descend from John Sutcliffe Sr supposedly married to a Franklin lady who died 1817.Sorry! No dates for J Sutcliffe Sr maybe 1750-1830?

While the family originated in Yorkshire, They moved to Manchester area of Lancashire in the late 1700s.

There were at least 4 boys born to John and ____? Franklin?.
James, Henry, Charles (1800) and John jr (1804).

I dont know anything about James or Henry but they were probably born 1790s.

Charles lived until after 1870 and he married Sarah Wayling, 29 Oct 1821, and had a family including Francis Alexander, Lavinia, Michael,Sarah,Susannah.

Francis Alexander Sutcliffe married Elenor Wainwright on 10 Dec 1843 and the couple had many children as well, Manchester.
A son was Charles Thomas Sutcliffe, born 1853, who became a professional musician, and he was said to have married Emma Crawford.

Claudine, d/o Francis A and Elenor Wainwright, married Walter Thomas West and that couple raised a family, ending up in New Zealand.

John Sutcliffe born 20 Feb 1804 married 10 June 1824, Temperance White.
First daughter was Sarah Downes Sutcliffe born 04 Dec 1825, Manchester.
THe next 6 children perished very early in life.
The 8th child was Emily Selina Sutcliffe born 14 June 1842, Manchester.
The last child born to this couple was Paul Sutcliffe on 17 Jan 1848.
1862 John , Temperance Sutcliffe and children then living, Emily and Paul, left Liverpool for Canada where their eldest daughter Sarah Downes had settled in Sharon Ontario with her husband George Peter Smith.
I am interested in establishing contact with any Sutcliffe descendents of this Lancashire family and I would also like any information on Henry and James Sutcliffe who may have left England for the USA or New Zealand/ Australia?

While I have researched census etc for this family, I am fortunate to own a family history as recorded by the above mentioned Paul Sutcliffe written in 1924.
