Tracy, How did you come up with the 101? I am v experienced at Genealogy, but a novice at Surfing. Do you have the CD, or is there a website with a master index? |

I use Ancestry. It tells you at the top how many results you get for what ever search criteria you put in. |

You can have mine and try to work out who goes with who if you want :) I got a load of Williams all born around the same time (before 1837) and marrying the same woman - Elizabeth or Mary lol I'm off home now. I'll check in on you later tonight :) |

Hoghton looks like a good bet. It is halfway between Preston and Blackburn. He could easily have gone to Bury to work. Let's not make the mistake of thinking once a Platelayer always a platelayer. People did change their jobs. |
