Introduction to the Ambrose family
In
the mid-18th century the Ambrose family here were in Upholland, Lancashire (near
Wigan) and were farmers and millers. I know next to nothing about the family, or their current
whereabouts, excepting what shows on the tree itself. It seems that many members
of the family in the mid 19th century started to work at the copper works in St
Helens (with one at Jarrow).
The following families are linked to the Ambroses and have at least a small tree to view.
| Name of Family | Link to Ambrose family | Background |
| Mayor | Will Mayor married Jane Ambrose in 1863 | A glassworker from Ashton in Lancashire |
| Thomas | John Thomas married Ann Ambrose in 1885 | Copper refiners from Seacombe / St Helens. |
