Thanks Dea !

What we are looking for is any relevant info on above Joseph Houghton who we have nothing further from 1881 census, the only info we have is as shown above, we have spent many hours at Warrington Archives etc where their respective Archivist spent hours on our behalf Lambert

You sound like you have 'given up' Lambert !! ???

What 'exactly' is it you are looking for?

I am sure we can help if you give us all the info you have.

Thank you all for help to date!
It would appear that my wife and I don't seem to be doing very well with our attempts using Genesreunited do we! We have been doing ancestry for a long time now and have most of the answers.
We use Ancestry.Co/LDS/thegenealogist all the BMD's and parish record facilities and GenesReunited some considerable time ago, but now with the latter methods seem to have changed somewhat!. However I think I now have the gist of it! So! Thank you all for your help so far! Lambert
