Neville Cardus

Tony Owen — 6 Nov 2002 8:25:36 GMT

Neville Cardus was a well-known music critic, broadcaster and cricket writer from the 1920's to his death in 1975.

He was born in April 1888 in Rusholme, Manchester the son of Ada Cardus.

In late 1888 there is a marriage registered between Ada Cardus and John Frederick Newsham who was an apprentice smith in the 1881 census - the son of John and Emma Newsham of Duke Street, Rusholme.

John Frederick Newsham [born circa 1866, Manchester] is not with Ada in the 1891 Census - Does anyone have any information on this Newsham family?

John Frederick also had brothers William Henry Newsham and Thomas Newsham.

Best Wishes

NEWSHAM HOUSE LIVERPOOL

FrancesFLee — 22 Nov 2004 8:20:07 GMT

Tracing family tree of Grandfather EDWARD NEWSHAM born 1881 at Wargrave House Newton-in-Makerfield, Lancashire. His father was JAMES NEWSHAM born in Kirkham in 1824. Mother Mary born Bantry, York (nee Watts). Family folklore says that Newsham House in Liverpool was owned by James' father.(James' birth certificate ordered which we hope will tell us his name) James had an older brother. We don't yet know his name. Were not sure if this Newsham House story is true or just a tale. Does anyone know the forename of the Newsham who donated the house to Liverpool council?
