George Winterbottom (b. c. 1800), Oldham. Lancs
Does anyone have any information on George Winterbottom, who was born about 1800 and died after 1861? George had two wives--Helen and Rhoda (surnames unknown). His children by Helen were James, Ann, John, Jane, Joshua (my great-grandfather), and Henry Hunt Winterbottom. In 1851 George was a cotton twiner; in 1861 he was the proprietor of Thornson's barber (or butcher) shop. During this period the family lived on Royton Street in Oldham. Earlier (1841) they had lived on Waterworks Road. I'd very much appreciate any information anyone might have.
