Thanks for that Lancsann.
I was so excited when I thought I had found their house and walked around the area imagining what it was like in the past, but then was told that the house had been destroyed by fire and the house there now was built later. They also lived next door to the Harris family. I suppose having to get the newspaper published each week would have made it difficult to go travelling.
regards
Little Wren

Little Wren, I've seen your message to me at your blogsite, but I can't see a way to contact you privately via Rootschat.  I've just posted an article about WILCOCKSONs to my own blogsite: www.morgansite.wordpress.com and that includes a way to contact me.  Look forward to chatting to you!  Celia Renshaw in Chesterfield UK

Thanks Sandymc, after this, I'll post up a bit more info about Quaker WILCOCKSONs and that will make my three messages, all being well.  Cheers, Celia Renshaw

For anyone who's interested in the Quaker WILCOCKSONs of the Preston area... they start with Isaac WILCOCKSON born on 26d 4m 1727 in Longhill, Hetton, Burnsall parish, Yorkshire (West Riding), the son of Quakers David WILCOCKSON and Alice ANDERSON - they married on 18d 1m 1724 at Rylstone Meeting House, Burnsall.  1727 Isaac moved across the Pennines around the time of his marriage to Mary GILPIN of Wray, Lancs in 1751.  They were the grandparents of Isaac mentioned in the previous posts, born 1783.

David WILCOCKSON moved to Burnsall before or at the time of his marriage to Alice from Biggin near Wirksworth in Derbyshire (where WILCOCKSONs have lived since medieval times), and he was born while his father John WILCOCKSON was living for a while in Staffordshire, David's birth recorded at Leek MM in Jan 1698/99.  John's family moved back to Biggin from Staffs about 1709-10.  For more information see: www.morgansite.wordpress.com.
