    1. John and Sarah Ainsworth of Chorley
    2. I am looking for information on John and Sarah Ainsworth of the Chorley area. John and Sarah had 17 children, all with biblical names. I think John was born around 1838 and died around 1905 in England. I think Sarah died around 1906 in England.The only children that I know for sure that came to North America were Thomas and Enoch (my grandfather).Enoch stowed away on a cattle boat and was let off in Canada around 1874 or so. Enoch meets up with brother Tom in Fall River, Mass. around 1880.The other known names are :Richard, Rebecca, Sarah, John (killed by a lorry), Caleb, Lillian, and Joshua. Caleb had a daughter Katherine. Tom married a Maggie and had children Charles and Nellie. Enoch and Dorothea (Jenny) Hersey of New Brunswick, Canada had for children: Charles(1894-1972), Agnes (1897-1899), Sylvester Byron (1/31/1900-2/23/1982), Archie (1904-1950), Marion Dorothea (5/1/1907-6/20/1982), and Royal Alfred(3/12/1892- ?). Enoch and Dorothea seemed to have their children in ei! ther Mass. or Vt.The only other infor I have on John and Sarah is that they owned a farm, store, and quite a few houses. Any info would be greatly appreciated, as all I have, basically, is their names.
