Can anyone help me trace twins Jenny and Mary Corless DOB 23/08/1832, Lancashire. Parents John Corless 1798 and Jenny Bleasdale 1796. I can't find out whether they ever married or when they died. I got some info from familyseach site and the census. they are the last two in the generation I am working on. Very frustrating. Any help would be much appreciated.

Jenny and Mary are shown as 10 years different in age in 1841 (this could be correct, could be a mistake, or could be a red herring and the girls shown are not sisters....no relationships in 1841) 1841: Elizabeth Corless abt 1836 Lancashire, England Garstang Lancashire Ellen Corless abt 1838 Lancashire, England Garstang Lancashire Jane Corless abt 1828 Lancashire, England Garstang Lancashire Jenny Corless abt 1796 Lancashire, England Garstang Lancashire Jenny Corless abt 1833 Lancashire, England Garstang Lancashire John Corless abt 1799 Lancashire, England Garstang Lancashire <<<<Farmer Mary Corless abt 1823 Lancashire, England Garstang Lancashire William Corless abt 1831 Lancashire, England Garstang Lancashire Merry
