  Notes	1841 census (1): at The Miners Arms, Nether Alderley, Cheshire, Edward MELLOR (35, inn keeper & farmer), Catherine MELLOR (30), William MELLOR (4), Joseph MELLOR (3), Thomas JENNINGS (25, male servant), George BROCKLEHOUSE (?) (40, male servant), Jane WALSH (25, female servant), Ann HARRISON (15, female servant) and Thomas CHALLINOR (65, independent). All were born in Cheshire except for Thomas CHALLINOR. William and Joseph Mellor were Edward's sons from his first marriage. This was to Hannah KENNERLEY in 1834. Hannah died in 1839. 1841 census (2): in Gawsworth, Cheshire, Geo. CLEGG, 30, Hannah CLEGG, 30 and 4 CLEGG children, Jos. CHALLINOR (10), Thos. CHALLINOR (7), Thos. PICKFORD (7), George PICKFORD (6) and Wm. HARTLEY (7). 1851 census (1): in Lord Street, Macclesfield, Thomas CHALLONER (head, widower, 39, timber merchant, born Macclesfield), Joseph CHALLONER (son, 19, sawyer, born Macclesfield), Thomas CHALLONER (son, 17, clerk, born Macclesfield), Elizabeth HULME (unmarried, 26, shopwoman, born Scholar Green, Cheshire), Martha RATHBONE (widow, 52, house servant, born Congleton, Cheshire) and Edward MELLOR (visitor, married, 45, born Branbury, Cheshire). 1851 census (2): at The White Lion, Mill Street, Macclesfield, Catherine MELLOR (head, married, 40, licensed victualler, born Macclesfield), Thomas PICKFORD (son, 17, at home, born Macclesfield), George PICKFORD (son, 15, at home, born Macclesfield), Thomas JENNINGS (servant, 45, single, hostler, born Chelford, Cheshire) and Jane TRAFFORD (servant, single, 22, house servant, born Macclesfield). 1851 census (3): in Kennerleys Lane, Chelford, Cheshire: George KENNERLEY (head of family, 29, farmer of 160 acres employing 5 labourers, born Chelford, Cheshire), Harriet KENNERLEY (wife, 32, farmers wife, born Mobberley, Cheshire), William KENNERLEY (son, 7, scholar, born Chelford), John KENNERLEY (son, 5, scholar, born Chelford), Mary Ann KENNERLEY (daughter, 2, born Chelford), Susannah KENNERLEY (daughter, 8 months, born Chelford), William MELLOR (nephew, 15, agricultural labourer, born Alderley, Cheshire) and 4 servants ( 2 ag labs, 2 house servants). As can be seen, in 1841, Edward's wife Catherine was living with him but her two sons were not. By contrast, in 1851, Catherine was no longer living with Edward but had her Pickford sons with her. The Mellor sons were however both living elsewhere, William with his uncle George KENNERLEY. I haven't found Joseph. Both Edward and Catherine died before the 1861 census. Edward was buried, aged 50, as of Over Alderley.
