(my G grandfather)

Born 14th July 1868 – died 10th October 1912
Henry was the father of Norbert Ainscough (my grandad). He married Catherine Farley in 1895, her family migrated from Dublin, Ireland, moving to Cheshire and then Liverpool.

Henry lived as station master in the Station Master’s house at Dean Lane, Moston from about 1900 to his early death at the age of 44 in 1912. He died young of pneumonia. On his death, the family had to move, the cost of living in a tied accommodation. Wife Catherine (Farley) remarried Pop Seymour. Henry's occupation, working on the Railways, was something his father Thomas (my GG grandad) had also done and indeed some of his children also went on to do – Bernard and Norbert. However, prior to this the family had always been farmers, Yeoman farmers as far back as the 1600s. I can only assume that the occupation change must have been due to the Industrial Revolution, where the move was away from farming to ndustrialisation.
