Narrative
1851 aged 4 months, Ellen is living with her parents and her older half-sister Mary, who is 10. Also living with them are her paternal grandparents James and Sarah. Her father and grandfather are working as fustian finishers in a cotton mill. Her mother's brother Jonathan aged 17 is also living with them, working as a dyer. In 1852 Ellen's brother James William was born, and in 1855 her sister Elizabeth was born. In 1861 Ellen and her younger siblings are living with their widowed grandmother Sarah, who is a Tripe Dealer.
1868 Ellen married Thomas Horrocks. Ellen gives her age as 20 but she was not yet 18. Thomas was 22. Their first two children were born about 6 months later. Twins Kezia and William are both on the 1871 census with their mother Ellen but her husband Thomas was not. Son William's birth was registered in 1869 but no entry has been found for Kezia. William was christened with his younger brother Thomas in April 1873 but there is no baptism for Kezia so she had probably died. The only possible match for her death before this was Mary Ellen in 1872. Mary Ellen is the name given to their next daughter, who was born in 1875.
They had 8 more children, making 12 children in total. Only William, Thomas and Alfred would survive to become adults. The other 9 all died before they were 3, most of them a few months after being born.
1911 census, Ellen is living with her brother-in-law Alfred in Ardwick. They are both 65, and their spouses were still alive. Ellen's husband has not been found. Alfred's wife Ann 62 was living in Chorlton with her widowed daughter Margaret Ann 31, and six other people in a seven room house.
1911 census says Ellen had 12 children but only 3 of them were still alive. Search of LancashireBMD found 10 of the 12 children, all registered in Ardwick, where the family were living. Two other children are shown on census records, Kezia and Thomas. Only 5 baptisms have been found for the 12 children, but one of these was for Thomas so we can be fairly certain that Thomas and Ellen had 12 children.
