1. | Martha Halsall was born in 1871 in Lathom. Other Events:
- Baptism: 16 Apr 1871, St John the Baptist, Burscough
Notes:
Age given as 21 in 1888 marriage record, which clearly names her father as Henry Halsall, but Henry's Martha (b1869 qv) is still living with him as a spinster in the 1891 census, so one of these records must be incorrect.
Evan, a widower, is living alone in 1891. Also this Martha names two of her sons Job and Evan, after her brothers, so it is considered more likely that the fault is in the marriage record.
Martha married Henry Hesketh on 9 Jan 1888 in Christ Church, Newburgh. Henry (son of Henry Hesketh and Margaret Abram) was born in 1866 in Newburgh. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
