Thanks cyokeeffe

I very much appreciate your help

I have been working on this one person for about 60 hours this Christmas
without success. With your information I may now be able to find out who
their parents are... taking the link even further back

Thanks a lot


Kind regards

Bill

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.
