Hyde and Romiley registers

[Stantons]

Further to the posting I made on 28 June, I am still searching for anything more on:
WILLIAM HALLOWS b abt 1791 Romiley, Dingle and
MARTHA ? b abt 1791 Romiley, Dingle.

Question 1: Any further help or advice would be very welcome. I live in the south and can’t get to the local record offices easily. Hallows can’t be a common name.


One of their sons, John Hallows married a Hannah Ridgway in 1849 in Stockport. Thanks to the help I got through Rootsweb, particularly from HOWMUCH and VELPREMUS, I managed to trace Hannah’s parents to:
JOHN RIDGWAY b abt 1797 Mellor, Glossop, Derbyshire and
LETTICE ? b abt 1792 Mellor, Glossop, Derbyshire.


I may have a possible solution (99% but not 100% sure of this) for Lettice’s parents:
BENJAMIN HAMBLETON of Mellor and
HANNAH BARBER of Mellor, who married 29 July 1795 Glossop.

Question 2: Any comments on this - and does anyone have more information on the HAMBLETONS? I think this family went back at least a couple of centuries in Mellor.

Question 3: Through posting my tree on Genes Reunite two weeks ago, I have been having correspondence about many other member of the RIDG(E)WAY family of Mellor, who go back to at least the 1550s in the village. But I can’t get that final link of my JOHN RIDGWAY with that family. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance to anyone who can throw light on this part of my family.
