Actually, Elizabeth and Esther were born in Martin, Lancashire. (silly me!)
The 1851 census has:
John Bretherton - 24 - agr. labourer - b. Lytham
Elizabeth - 27 - b. Martin
James - 1 - b. Lytham

Born Sept 12th and baptised Oct 2nd 1831 John son of Robert and Ann Bretherton ,This doesn't match the age on the 1861 census but I didn't find any other Brethertons on the records,I think the church was St Cuthbert's.
