Hi Pete and Sue, I have looked at the 1851 Census. It shows the following Club Houses Volunteer - Fielding family Volunteer - Isherwood family One uninhabited house Volunteer Knowles family (Inn Keeper) Lower House If there was an uninhabited house between 'Volunteer' and the Volunteer public house, it looks to me as though they were separate houses. My Kay and Howarth families in Toppings must have been neighbours of both your families. Kind regards, Anne in Bolton.
