Narrative

Ellen was born in 1836, the third child of Joseph Toft and Maria Jackson. She had older brothers Richard and Peter, and a younger brother Joseph. Her father worked as a miller.
Her brother Richard died aged 9, and her father Joseph died aged 35.
1841 census Ellen aged 5, is living in Knutsford with her maternal grandfather George Jackson, her mother, and her brothers Peter and Joseph.
1843 brother Joseph dies aged 5 in Knutsford.
1851 brother Peter is 17 and living in Ardwick Manchester. Not found Ellen (15) or her mother Maria (44) in 1851 but it is likely that they are also living in Manchester.
1855 Ellen gets married in Manchester Cathedral aged 19. Brother Peter gets married 6 months later in St Thomas Ardwick.
1861 Ellen is living with her own family. They live at the same address for more than 20 years. Close to the iron works where her husband was working. Two of her daughters lived in the two houses next door, so they were a close family.
Ellen had eight children, including twins Charles and Maria. Her maternal grandmother also had twins. The twins both died when they were 19 but the deaths were 10 months apart so probably no connection. Only Ellen's youngest child was baptised.
Brother Peter and his wife Mary Ann Eyres had 3 children. Peter died in his 30s, and his wife remarried in 1869.
1881 all their children are living with them apart from daughter Rose Ann (21) who gets married in October 1881 but she isn't with her husband to be, and hasn't been found anywhere else for the census of the same year.
1891 daughter Emma now married and living next door to them, with her husband and 2 children.
Ellen died on New Years Eve 1899, and is buried in Southern Cemetery.
