Sorry Ann

With all the excitement i have forgotten to post relevant details.

My 4x great grandparents are James Trickett and Margaret (Peggy) Holt

the apparent parents of Margaret being Charles and Mary.

Other sibling's for Margaret inc, Abraham who possibly married Ellen Barcroft and a brother John.

Thanks

Some of the online trees can be sooo wrong. Why not do as Ann says and give us the details? Perhaps we can help you prove or disprove it.
