Further to the other good info on here Anna Parr born 1875 daughter of William Parr bn 1847, marries Thomas Bleasdale and starts to use Ann Parr, she is my Great Grandmother.

Another useful site is http://www.prescot.org

Loving the sharing of info, thank you

Thank you for that  info CaroleW, I have been mainly tracing wife's family on the Isle of Man and now turning to mine, mainly from Prescot/Widnes area.


My main sticking point is finding Williams Birth, I am sure I will get there, thank you

Hi Donna.

I jump in and out of this site, maybe I should spend more time here!.

I have looked at my family history for some time, and my Parr family comes also out of Prescot and were mostly married, christened and finally some buried in Saint Ann's church.

I have a John Parr (b 1819) marrying Jayne Chorley (b 1817), ring any bells?

I wonder if there is a tie up??

I also have some photographs of the Parr burial stones in the church.

Hi there, haven't been on for a while, but came across your post, just been given new information for my family tree, including information on Ann Parr Born 1875 Whiston (Prescot) she married Thomas Bleasdale in 1900 in Prescot. I have her as daughter of William Parr and Ann Pendleton but there I am having issues tracing William, wondering if you had an ideas?
Cheers in advance Chris Turner

Hi there everybody, just come across this thread after finding a Catherine Blong married a James F (Frederick) Sankey in Prescot, Lancashire in 1923. Prescot being just North of Widnes. I downloaded the PDF format tree and saw that Catherine bn 1893, (daughter of Peter) died in 1924.
Just wondering if anybody had heard of this marriage or had any further information.
If this is the James F Sankey I am tracing it would have been his second wife, J F Sankey is my wifes Grandfather.
Thank you in advance.
