Elkanah Armitage
Is anyone related to Elkanah Armitage, Cotton Mill owner in Salford and local potitician in Salford and Manchester, UK?Born 6th September 1794 (I think in Failsworth, Manchester) and died 26 November 1876.
His father was Elkanah, grandfather was John and great grandfather was Godfrey Armitage of Lydgate near Huddersfield.
He was the third son of 13 children. His brothers were Elijah, Ziba, Benjamin, Thomas and John.
He was married twice (to Mary Lomax Bowers who died 19 Dec 1836 and Elizabeth Kirk who died 27 July 1866) and had 9 children (including Elkanah, Benjamin, Samuel, Joseph John, Vernon Kirk and Emily) and 50 grandchildren.
He is interred at Weaste Cemetery in Salford, where I am engaged in developing a Heritage Trail. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
