• Notes

  Age given as 40 in 1841 census, 48 in 1851. Likely burial record on Lancashire OPC, 21.10,1857 St Michael and All Angels, Altcar,age 51,so birth year quite unclear. Nearest possibility geographicalls would be b15.10.1798 to George and Margaret Shaw, Downholland, bapt 11.11.1798 St Cuthbert, Halsall - but several other possiblilties, mostly inLiverpool.
