Research Notes

Elizabeth Ingold Ormandy and her family were enumerated on the same Adlington census page as John Harrison (b. 1776) and his family. This suggests that their children, John Harrison (b. 1813) and Elizabeth Ormandy (b. 1813) were neighbours before they married, perhaps even childhood sweethearts!
