Hi, is anyone out there doing their Heywood tree and may have John Heywood and Alice Heaton in it.
I know they Heywood's are many down in Manchester and I keep going off course with my tree, so I was wondering if anyone could help me.

Try searching other member trees for them to try to connect to other members researching the family.

According to the marriage cert on ancestry they married 23/3/1850 in Manchester (if this is the right couple) he was a fireman on the railway age 24, father John, marker up and she was 22, her father John a publican. Witnesses Mary Ann Griffiths and Henry ?? (I can't make it out.
