Sorry this is the first time I have heard this information with reference to Edmund Cartwright.

I do not know where William Cartwright was born or even the year, I do know that his wife Jane was born about 1774 but not where, nor do I know her maiden name. All I do know is that all the children were baptised at All Saints, Loughborough. They were John, James, William, Katherine, Joseph, Jane, William, Hannah and Walter.

Was his wife called Mary Cartwright?
If so does anyone have information on her family? Was she related to Edmund, John and George Cartwright?

Harry did not have a factory but was associated with the hosiery trade, as well as being a member of the Heanor Urban District Council.
