Right re-read all my notes to get facts straight.
James Hamer was born 1740 in Bolton-le Moors. Forget death date - no idea where that came from, probally a mix up by me.
He was resident in Wigan in April 1762 and married Mary Marsh in 1762 of Bolton-le-moors.
My notes state he married Betty Hills/Mills in 1752 and her dates are b.1740 d. 1761.
So a year after the death of Betty he married Mary.
I was in contact, years ago with a Hamer who searching the Hamer family tree and who gave info on the Hamers from 1680 up to 1740 ie James Hamer 1761-000. Seems they did not find marriage of Thomas Hammer to Catherine Thay, but had their children down and I followed on from there.
