    10. [S480] Web site Roots chat, I am also doing some searching for the Featherstone family in the Salford area, some of which are my family.

      I have managed to trace my tree back to Benjamin S Featherstone & Hannah Mary Atkinson. I have their wedding date as 25th Sept 1839. I know that they had a son called Benjamin Atkinson Featherstone who was my great, great-grandad. After finding what i believe to be my great-grandmother's birth certificate (Emma Feathertone). I have come across a confusion regarding Benjamin Atkinson Wife. I know that his wife was called Sarah which agrees with Emma's birth certificate, however her maiden name of Farrow is proving a mystery as we are unable to find a marriage for Benjamin & Sarah.

      As you are looking for the record as mentioned above, i was hoping that maybe you could help me with this information.

      Many Thanks

Our Names

The spelling of the name Featherstone has varied over the centuries, with additions and subtractions. Here is the list that we have registered with the Guild Of One Named Studies.

Featherstone, Featherston, Fetherstone, Fetherston, Featherstonhalgh, Featherstonehaugh, Featherstonhaugh, Fetherstonehaugh, Fetherstonhaugh.

We have examples from the Birth, Marriage and Death indexes where people were registered at birth with the final 'e' missing and were married with the final 'e' in the surname. The 'haugh' is more difficult to prove, but people have suddenly adopted it for no apparent reason, although we have instances where people adopted the name, usually when money was involved.
