Hi - I am researching John Clegg who was a shopkeeper born in about 1790 (aged '50' on 1841 census) living in Drake Street Castleton Rochdale in 1841 with a Jane Clegg aged 15. John's daughter Elizabeth born ca 1820 moved to Lambeth in London & married Ralph Dunn born ca 1807 - they were 2 of my g g grandparents. I got John's occupation details from their marriage certificate. Ralph was a bacon dryer who died I believe about 1857 & I am sure Elizabeth moved back with her younger children to Accrington as she is in King Street on the 1861 census. Does this family rings any bells with anyone? I see there is a Jophn Clegg shopkeeper in Whitehall St Rochdale in Pigot's 1828 Commercial Directory. I would be grateful for any help as this is one of my 'brick walls'! Cheers, Jean
