Accrington Web - View Single Post - Wright and Gorton Family

Hi I'm researching my family history but am getting stuck with Henry Wright, I can't trace his parents or siblings. He was my great grandfather, the father of Olive Wright and she married Richard Gorton who was a butcher in Accrington indoor market. The earliest census record I can find for him is 1891 where he was living on Manchester Road and it states he was born in 1865 on Malta and a British subject. My father was Bazil Gorton and we moved to Derbyshire in 1973. I would be so grateful if any one could help, thanks in advance.
