Census Notes
Although there are many George Haworth's in Lancashire,
only one was the correct age in Accrington. The correct George is also
confirmed by genealogists. |
According to the 1871
census, George is the youngest of eight children to George and Mary. They
live in Adelaide Street in Accrington. His father is a block printer. |
|
According to the 1881
census, George is the youngest of five children still living with their
parents at 10 Adelaide Street. George is a labourer at the printworks,
where his father is a printer also. To be noted, there is another
sixteen year-old Accrington-born George Haworth living at Love Clough in
Higher Booths, south of Accrington. He is boarding with his widowed
father, George, and two of his brothers the family house of Ann Pickup and
her family. Coincidentally, this George is also a labourer at the
printworks. He was, however, only recorded as a five year-old in the 1871
census return, and in 1891, recorded as being born in Bacup. |
|
According to the 1891
census, George is married to Martha is a licensed victualler at The Boars
Head at 51 Burnley Road, Accrington. He has four children, George,
Beatrice, Mary and six month-old Henry. |
|
According to the 1901
census, George and his family (his wife and three children) are now living
at The Royal, at 70 Victoria Street in Blackburn. |
|
According to the 1911
census, George, still a victualler and still married, living at 141
Duckworth Street in Darwen with two of their children. The census reveals
that they had five children, and two had died. |
|
Married |
to Martha Alice Halstead
[registered in Haslingden, December 1886]. Not
Martha Lonsdale
[registered in Haslingden, March 1887]. Yes, a George
Haworth married a Martha at the end of 1886 in Haslingden area, and
another George Haworth married an entirely different Martha at the
beginning of 1887. The 1901 census confirms George's wife name as Martha
Alice. |
