He was from Preston, but he is not recorded on any documentation, except for his daughter Elizabeth's (my 3x great grandmother, born c.1832) marriage to Roger Dewhurst in July 1852, Preston. On the record, it says that he was dead, and his name is not on the BMD index, and so died between 1830 and 1837. Could someone help me find any other documentation of him please? Here is the marriage record from http://www.lan-opc.org.uk/ Marriage: 5 Jul 1852 St John, Preston, Lancashire, England Roger Dewhurst - 21, Mariner, Bachelor, Brunswick St. Elizabeth Southworth - (X), 20, Weaver, Spinster, Gradwell St. Groom's Father: John Dewhurst, Engine Tenter Bride's Father: Late Banister Southworth, Laborer Witness: Thomas Brown, (X); Ellen Southworth, (X) Married by Banns by: S Hastings Curate Register: Marriages 1852, Page 108, Entry 216 Source: LDS Film 93994 Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
