Ok so I’m keeping this separate from my other Cotton post - don’t want to over complicate with a possible false connection.

I’m looking for the ancestors not descendants of

John Cotton b1774 ish Astbury Cheshire.

Emma, just so people know what this is related to:

https://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards/board/ancestors/thread/1370589

Threads get separated and sink, not everybody has seen multiple threads ...

What you're really looking for is the parents of James Cotton 1811, no?

So what you want to know actually *is* this John Cotton's descendants, i.e. did he have a son James - ?

Or maybe there's a different connection with this John of Astbury.
