Milton Cucknell, b. ca 1826, Lancashire
I am looking for the parents/lineage of Milton Cucknell who was born ca. 1826 at Edgeworth, Lancashire, England.His father may have been Edward.Milton married Mary Ann Bradley, b. ca. 1825, Manchester, dau. of Thomas Bradley, and a widow on 31 May 1856 in Haslingden, Lancs.Her married name may have been Syess?Milton died 24 Apr 1883 in Haslingden and Mary Ann died 25 Mar. 1870 in New Accrington.
They had a son, Edward, b. 29 May 1857, Lower Stonefold, Haslingden.He married Alice Ann Cunliffe 21 Sept 1878 in Haslingden.Edward died 19 Feb 1913, Baxenden.Edward and Alice Ann had the following children:(1) Henry Milton, b. abt 1880, m. Edith Isabella Foote; (2) William Edward, b. abt 1882, m. Martha Rushton; (3) John Thomas, b. abt 1884, m. Bertha Gorton; (4) Alice Ann; (5) Samuel, b. abt 1889; d. 1902; (6) James, b. 23 Jan 1891, m. Alice Whittaker 16 June 1915, d. 22 Apr 1971; (7) Jane, b. 16 Aug 1895, m. Edward Aspinal, d. 1990.
I have found this family in the 1861,1871,1881, 1891 and 1901 Census'.I would like to get further back and also contact any descendants.Since I can't find much in the way of church records, were the Cucknell's non-Conformists?Also, the name is spelled a variety of ways, including Cockerill, etc.
