This page contains some notes on a family whose origins we are researching. Some families we know more about than others, but we hope that by publishing this summary here we can make contact and exchange data with people who can help to complete the picture.
The Winterbottom family we are researching lived in Liverpool. We are interested in the following generations of people who bore this surname:
Thomas Winterbottom and Elizabeth Blundell (married 1780)
James Blundell Winterbottom (1784 - 1849) and Elizabeth Dagnall
James Winterbottom (1807 - 1859) and Ellen Jones (c1807 - c1855)
Ann Winterbottom (1832 - 1895) and John Pedder (1825 - 1880)
All the information found so far on this family relates to Liverpool, where James Blundell Winterbottom worked as a bedstead maker and his son James Winterbottom was a ropemaker. We also know something about the Pedder family, but very little about the other maternal lines. Elizabeth Dagnall was previously married to Robert Quayle, and we believe that Ellen Jones came from Wales.
