Less detail
Generation: 1

  1. 1.  Margaret Ann Longton was born in 1867 in Whittle-le-Woods (daughter of James Longton and Margaret Tinsley).

    Notes:

    Margaret Ann Prescott in 1881 census

    Margaret married John Hodkinson about Feb 1886 in St John the Evangelist, Whittle le Woods. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


Generation: 2

  1. 2.  James Longton was born in 1848 in Aspull, Wigan (son of Robert Longton and Ann Lancaster); died between 1873 and 1877.

    Other Events:

    • Occupation: Boatman
    • Baptism: 28 Mar 1848, St David, Haigh

    Notes:

    No death record found, which presumably would be between birth of daughter Elizabeth and birth of wife's illegitimate son James Thomas Davies, but another possibility is that he abandoned Margaret: there is a James Longton of the right age, a flagger and slater, b Whittle, living in Wheelton with "wife" Margaret and children but no obvious marriage record.

    James married Margaret Tinsley on 1 Apr 1867 in St George, Wigan. Margaret (daughter of Thomas Tinsley and Mary Hesketh) was born in 1849 in Heath Charnock, Adlington. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  2. 3.  Margaret Tinsley was born in 1849 in Heath Charnock, Adlington (daughter of Thomas Tinsley and Mary Hesketh).

    Other Events:

    • Baptism: 17 Jun 1849, Christ Church, Adlington

    Notes:

    Baptism record on Lancs OPC is for a second Jane but this must be Margaret because the Jane born in 1843 is listed in the 1851 census, as is Margaret, age 1, for whom there is no baptism record.
    Second marriage to William Prescott probably bigamous - see notes for first husband, James Longton, and in her son Henry Prescott's baptism record.
    In 1901 census, names of mother Margaret and daughter Ellen have been transposed, with Margaret indicated as a widow, although William Prescott is living in Oldham as father-in-law of his stepdaughter Elizabeth McGoldrick.
