I am looking for information re my g.grandfather, Frederick, William Thackray. He was born on 21 Dec 1861, Sheffield, England to Horatio Thackray b.15 Nov 1841, Nether Hallam, Sheffield, England and Mary Ann Hattersley b.15 Nov 1841, Parish of St. Mary's, Sheffield, England. Frederick, William Thackray in 1881 was staying with his cousin, George, Greaves Hattersley and family at 16 Daniel Hill, Nether Hallam, County of York, Nether Hallam, Sheffield, England and was listed as a chemist's assistant. Frederick married Annie, Elizabeth Bradshaw on 28 Feb 1884 (daughter of George Bradshaw of Commonslide, Crooks, England, table grinder) at the Parish Church in Sheffield, England. In 1904 he was a wholesale druggist, located at 10 Claremont Rd, Birkdale, Southport, England. In 1906, he was located at 32 Liverpool Road, Birkdale, Southport, England and in 1908/09 at 35 Brighton Rd. Birkdale, Southport, England. Other addresses for Fredrick were Sussex Road, Kensington Road and Manchester Road, all in Birkdale, Southport, England. I have no record of his whereabouts after that. He had a daughter by the name of Beatrice Thackray, b. 28 July 1884, Sheffield, England who married James, Gafney Gavin on 8 Oct 1906 at Birkdale, Southport, England. James Gavin was an Electrical engineer. James and Beatrice Gavin nee: Thackray had 3 children., Morine Teresa Gavin b. 16 Mar 1907, Ormskirk, Lancaster, England and James Gavin b. 8 May 1908, Ormskirk, Lancaster, England and Beatrice Gavin b. 5 July 1909 , Ormskirk, Lancaster, England. I have no further information on Frederick Thackray's daughter's family. I am interested in finding any information about the Gavin and Bradshaw families as well. Frederick and Anne Thackray nee: Bradshaw had also had 2 sons. Frederick Gordon Thackray b. 29 Aug 1885, Sheffield, England and Allan Douglas Thackray b. 25 May 1895, Sheffield, England. Frederick William Thackray's wife Annie Elizabeth Thackray nee: Bradshaw and their 2 sons, Fredrick G. Thackray and Allan D. Thackray emigrated to Toronto, Ontario Canada around 1912. Frederick, William Thackray and daughter Beatrice Gavin nee: Thackray stayed in England apparently. Allan D. Thackray later married Alexina, Kate, Maggie Miller on 20 June 1917, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

I just stumbled across your message of ten years ago.

My father was Allan and my mother Alexina.

As I was a judge for many years you can learn all you would ever want to know about me, indeed more than you would ever want to know, by doing a google search.

My niece Maureen Materi who lives in Edson, Alberta has done extensive research on the family. He phone number is 780-723-4032

Sorry for the long delay in replying.

Hello, just had to answer this, the George Greaves Hattersley you talk about is my Gt Gt Grandfather, he married Mary Ann Harrington, their child George Frederick Hattersley married Emily Merrill and their daughter Edna is my grandmother. Would love to know if you have any further information regarding George Greaves Hattersley, i've found his father was John and his father was George and they all worked in fender/stove grate manufacturing, except George F who was a cab driver and he passed away in 1948 while living at Haden St
