In 1846 Henry was a spindle maker of 2 Court, Blossom St, Ancoats. In 1881 the widowed Martha was at 5 Priam St, Harpurhey and in 1901 she was at 330 Rochdale Rd, Manchester.

We have it that William John married Emily GOUGH in1879 at Salford, Lancashire. We aren't yet sure of the parentage of her two daughters or indeed, William's son Alfred. It maybe that both of them were previously married.

Alfred appears in the 1881 census living with his family at 9 Tavistock St, Harpurhey, Lancashire.

In 1901, Emily was living at Oxford Street, Woodstock, Oxfordshire, England, and gave her occupation as Dressmaker.
__________

We aren't sure whether or not Emiy was married before she married William Longworth. Certainly Eliza and Maria Gough appear in the 1881 census as stepdaughters of William. It ias also noted that when Maria Gough married, she gave her father's name as Richard. I note that Emily would have been just 18-19 years old when her first daughter Eliza was born.

Notes for Maria Louisa GOUGH:

Maria married a man named Albert Victor WHITLOCK, aged 22 years, on 17 July 1899 at Woodstock, Oxfordshire, England. He was a glover by trade, son of John, also a glover.
Interestingly, the Woodstock PR Transcript gives her father's name as Richard, so maybe her mother had been married pereviously.
