MOORE family (Santon)

Hi all,

I have just subscribed to the list so I thought I would pop in and introduce myself and my research interests in the I.O.M.

My great-grandmother was Ellen Moore born in K.Santon 1864-1868. She came to Liverpool at some point and married John Rogers in 1886.

Looking at the 1881 census I can only find 1 close match to her: Ellen Moore U age 17 dress maker, living with her married sister Catherine Keys (I believe this might be Keah) at Ballacottier, Bradden. Her parents are possibly dead.

When Ellen & John Rogers married she named her children: Ellen, James H, John W, Robina, Christopher and my granddad Thomas. Only John is a Rogers family name so maybe they are clues to Ellen's family.

If anyone can help or is also researching this line, please get in touch.

Kind regards Val in Lancashire.
