Keep in mind census information is not always correct. I've found several family members who have a different birthplace on different censuses even though I know it's the right person.  The birthplace often became the place they were living at the time.  I suppose it makes sense that if you have a family of 12 or more and move around a lot, it might be hard to remember who was born where!

Hello Everybody, I am researching my daughter-in-law's ancestry much of which is in Lancashire. The first main surname involved is Farnworth, that particular family being constant in Chorley area from 1787 descending from Robert Farnworth and Mary Sudell but before that in Walton-le-Dale area. That particular surname is mostly in Chorley area where there were several families from the time stated but linking their ancestry and probably impossible. It appears that some were Roman Catholics and a further complication is that Irish immigrants are also linked in the family tree. The second main surname is Richmond emanating from Cockerham area from 1601 and which over the years and generations became entangled, to name but a few, with Richardson, Hewitt, Copple (et vars), mainly in Knowsley and Huyton areas. Regards, Rod in a very warm and sunny Hampshire. --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus

Jane, I got the Film number by searching the "Catalog" (Main page then "Search" and select "Catalog" from drop-down list.   It's a good way of seeing if they have anything on the place you are interested in and if, for instance they have a Film is it on-line, either as raw images or transcribed data as well. Bear in mind that even if they have the transcribed data the image may give you some additional information.

Elaine… just checking baptisms for those parents .. Stephen Barrow was baptised at Copp Chapel! So it is looking promising.

Hi Elaine Thanks so much for that, which I think conclusively rules out Copp and saves me continuing to search down a dead end. And you’re quite right to remind me that first babies were often born back in the parental home. Sometimes I forget things like that, especially when I’m fixated on something! I had started to look further afield, but have been coming up with results that seemed quite random.. Prescot and Ulverston for example! That’s Ancestry, which I serious think sometimes has gremlins. Kirkham makes sense date and place wise, so I’m going to work through that. I think there are a couple of other possibilities in that area too. Jane Barrow married my 3x ggf William Hesketh. That whole family were Rufford based, but William’s father moved to Liverpool where he was running a carting business. So here is a Liverpool, Rufford, Preston communication link. William became a Customs Officer in Liverpool, but he could well have met Jane somewhere on route to Preston with his father. I’m not sure how much he himself as a Customs Officer would have had the opportunity to travel. He is always at home in the Census Records, but that is after his marriage. The family must have kept close ties with Rufford because William’s parents were both buried in Rufford as were 2 of William’s siblings. There’s even a sister in law and a second husband on the headstone, though I think that is ‘in memory of.’ Thanks again.. I forget how helpful these lists are sometimes. It’s easy to get tunnel vision when alone with the laptop!

The LDS Catalogue shows that they have the Bishop's transcripts for Copp, 1813-1875 as a microfilm.   The Film number is 001502471. You could order a copy and view it at your local LDS Family History Centre.   Or alternatively browse the images at https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:S3HY-6LTR-CM?mode=g&cat=368101 (all 509 pages) However by searching on Film 001502471 you can find the death of a Jane Barrow, in 1844 but that was at St Michaels on Wyre. There is no Jane Barrow in the Copp BTs. ------------- On 18/09/2019 16:30, Jane Lucas via LANCSGEN wrote: > Hi busy list! > > I’m currently looking for the baptism of a Jane Barrow.

Hi busy list! I’m currently looking for the baptism of a Jane Barrow. According to Census Records she was born in Great Eccleston about 1813. The anglican church there is St. Anne, Copp (not ruling out non conformist.) She married William Hesketh, Mariner, in 1835 at St. Peter’s, Liverpool. The early registers are online with Lancs OPC, but I want 1813 onwards, which are held by Lancashire Archives. Too far away from me. There are Transcripts with the LPRS but at this stage I don’t want to buy a whole book for one baptism. FamilySearch say they have records for St. Anne, but not one single record from that Church comes up when I search. That may mean there isn’t anything, but there are plenty of Barrows before 1812, so either my search skills need improving, or FS don’t actually have any data. Just wondering if anyone has any ideas? Manchester Archives looked hopeful too as they appear to have transcripts, but no information as to how one can view them! Jane

Hello all from Pennsylvania,A few of my surnames from Lancashire include:Thomas GREGORY ,b. 1845 in Brickyard,Bedford,Lancashire. He was married the Jane HAMPSON,my 3rd Great Aunt.Thomas was involved with the Leigh Baptist Church and he passed away in March of 1911 in Leigh.Thomas hasn't"t been what I would call a brickwall but I'm curious about his connections with the Leigh Baptists church group.Is there anything anyone can point do to point me in the right direction?? Thank you all...I've been a long time subscriber here and I'velearned a lot here ! Marianne in Pennsylvania -----Original Message-----  1. Dugdales (Sue mann)   2.

Actually Bob - I don't think I knew that either, so thanks! The problem with a lot of the write-ups (at least the ones that I've found) is that they don't distinguish between what should have happened (I'd say "must" except we all know "must" doesn't always happen) and what might happen. That distinction might well go towards explaining options. Adrian
