Lookng for my Grandparents is a real challenge unfortunately my dad has passed and there are no records at all that we can find. Are there any Shaw's out there with ancestors from Blackburn in Lancashire. my great great grandparents on my grandmothers side were Fred and Harriet Farnsworth from Moor Green in Nottinghamshire. Any leads or knowledge appreciated
Regards

Harriet was also born c1879 in Nottingham and she was a "Hosiery Ironer. Jane was aged 2, born c 1899 in Nottingham. They were living at 4 Sherwood Place, Broad Marsh, Nottingham.
In the 1891 Census there is a Fred and a Frederick in Nottingham but the Fred was born in Moor Green so if that is the correct one then th family is as follows

Martha c1874 Watnall, Nottingham a Domestic Household
Flora c1876 Moor Green, a Domestic Household
Lily c1880 Watnall, scholar
