Looking for any information regarding a WALTER SHERWIN who lived in Denton, and any information for his cousin MARY BURGESS (nee SHERWIN)
Many thanks

If would be useful if you could confirm a few dates but, in the meantime, these guesses might be relevant.
Walter Sherwin
In 1920, Thomas Sherwin married Jane Garside at Haughton St Anne church
They had two children – Walter (born 1921) and May (born 1927), both births registered at Stockport.
I think Walter went on to marry Mary Pugh at Denton, Methodist Church (Manchester Road) in 1947. They had two children – Kenneth John (b 1948) and Robert Ian (b 1952)
Mary Sherwin (Burgess)
The most likely marriage for Mary Sherwin is in 1950 to Francis Burgess at Gee Cross (Hyde), Holy Trinity. I can’t find any children for this couple, although that doesn’t mean they didn’t have any.
I think Francis Burgess died in 1993 and his wife, Mary, in 1999. If I have that right, Francis was born on 9th March 1922, and his wife Mary (Sherwin) on 8th January, 1923.
The most likely birth for Mary Sherwin between 1920-24 was registered at Hyde in 1920 and the mother’s name was ‘Tweedale’. That means her parents were likely to be Smith Sherwin and Lucy Tweedale who married at Hyde St Thomas in 1910.
Smith Sherwin died at Hyde in 1980 (age 80) and I suspect his wife Lucy died at Hyde in 1958 (age 68)
Hopefully, that should get you back to the 1901 census.
