• 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.
