We have a John Leaver, son of John & Nancy, born 1849 but he was born Briercliffe so I haven't checked it out yet to see whether it was the same one. |

According to Lancashire bmd, John Leaver married Nanny Brown in 1872. She died in 1886 and he remarried (to Clara Page ) in 1890. Which still doesn't answer the question who his parents were. If I can't find it from the censuses I'll send for the marriage cert. |

The parents of the John Leaver above appear to be James (1823-1890) & Elizabeth (1822-1882) 1851 Census – HO 107 / 2251 / 1 Houghtans, Extwistle, St. John James Leaver, Head, Married, 27yrs, Gamekeeper, b. Lancs, Extwistle Elizabeth Leaver, Wife, marr, 27yrs, b. Lancs, Extwistle John Leaver, Son, 1yrs, b. Lancs, Extwistle 1861 RG9; Piece: 3074; Folio: 6; Page: 5 Extwistle Fold James Leaver 37, head, marr, gamekeeper, b Marsden Elizabeth Leaver 38, wife, marr, b Extwistle John Leaver 11, son, scholar, b Extwistle 1871 RG10; Piece: 4148; Folio: 40; Page: 26 Heasandford James Leavers 48, head, marr, gamekeeper, b Marsden Elizabeth Leavers 49, wife, marr, gamekeeper's wife, b Briercliffe John Leavers 21, son, unm, joiner, b Briercliffe I have a suspicion that James was the son of John (1794-1871) and Ann Catlow. All their earlier children were born at Finsley, Little Marsden before the family moved to Extwistle Hall. Elizabeth (1824) is probably Elizabeth Harrison (Lancashire Marriage index 1848 - Worsthorne, St John Evangelist, registers at Preston CE131/1/3). Working on it. |

I've now posted details of the James Leaver/ Elizabeth Harrison marriage in the marriages section. I'm happy it confirms that this James was the son of John (1794-1871) as John also was a gamekeeper and living at Roggerham as the innkeeper in 1851. |
