When baby Alice died on 2nd August 1837 (I have the death certificate), aged 8 weeks old, from Diarrhoea, the informant was Alice Porritt Mother Widow
Therefore Samuel Porritt had died before August 1837. |

I wonder if he came from Yorkshire. I keep looking at this:
Name: Samuel Porritt Event Date: 30 Jul 1785 Event Type: Baptism Parish: Birstall, St Peter Father's name: Joseph Porritt http://search.ancestry.co.uk/cgi-bin...iv=1&ml_rpos=6 My Samuel's daughter, Mary, my 2x-great-grandmother, named her two sons Joseph and Samuel. |

Also, the two sons from Samuel Porritt's marriage to Alice were named Joseph and Samuel respectively.

The place of abode on the 1818 baptism is Tinker - maybe Tinker Brook in Oswaldtwistle? I've been looking for Samuel's burial but no luck.

Kate, thanks for looking.
I have Tinker, thanks. I too wish I could find his burial. There is a very short time frame. The details for the two dead children show this: Samuel chr. 30 Jul 1837 Cathedral Manchester died 13 May 1838 9 Caroline Street Ancoats Decline Son of Samuel Porritt Deceased Millwright Informant: Alice Porritt Alice chr. 30 Jul 1837 Cathedral Manchester died 2 Aug 1837 Caroline Street Ancoats Diarrhoea Informant: Alice Porritt Mother Widow There is no indication that Samuel was dead when the children were christened, but he was definitely dead by 2nd August 1837. |

Porritt can have many variations, so perhaps I need to give all those a go, but I always tick the "Variants" box.

I think Samuel moved about for his work, so that is why I wondered about the Yorkshire connection.

I can't find any trace of Alice Porritt the widow of Samuel, nor of Elizabeth, Margaret and Joseph Porritt, her children. They seemed to have disappeared in a puff of smoke!
