Hi Arthur,
Sorry,but I couldn't find the others :(
I think the best idea is to post a look up request for each of them individually,that way,I think,you might have more luck in locating them :)
Sorry that I can't help you further,
Good luck with your search,Mick ;)

You had nothing on Benjamin B 1824 Sam B1828 and Wilson b 1838 I am wondering if they died young or moved away from Rothwell Can you please ckeck deaths on these three or on anything that will throw light on what happened to them regards Max
