I have been working on my ancestors family,John Broome (1769-aft 1851) and his wife Sarah Ridgway of Hurdsfield. I have records for their six children, five of whom reached adulthood. Through careful examination of original records I have two sources each for the marriages of three of the children, which leaves two for whom I cannot find marriages.
Richard Ridgway Broome bapt 14 Feb 1807 Christ Church Macclesfield
James Broome bapt 17 Jun 1804 Christ Church Macclesfield
My question is, since I cannot find death records for these boys in Hurdsfield or Macclesfield between 1804 and 1827 when they would have been minors, or marriage records for men of these names marrying in either Macclesfield or Hurdsfield, does that indicate they may have immigrated and I should start looking in the direction?
With kind regards, stumped in the USA
