seeking the HORROCKS root

Post by plimmerian »

"Our" Ann PLIMMER (nee HORROCKS) died in 1861 aged 73 as per death cert - on census listed as born in Hindley - married in All Saints, Wigan in 1810 and speculate her baptism on 13 Sep 1788 at St Mary the Virgin, Leigh, Lancashire as the daughter of William Horrocks & Martha of Hindley

From looking at other baptisms I speculate William HORROCKS married Martha LYON on 02 Jun 1782 at All Saints, Wigan, Lancashire and I'm guessing they died some time after 1801 but before the 1841 census - maybe they were non-conformist and that's why I'm not finding burial records for these two!?!

I was hoping someone might have done a one name study on this branch - like that featured on WDYTYA when Jane HORROCKS was researching her ancestry - no such luck !!! lol

Thanks for reading my little post!

Have you made contact with the two members also researching the name in our Members Interests, perhaps they might be able to help.
