Hi Dotty,
Thanks for the offer it is very kind of you. I don't think that the John and Ann Jackson are part of my line as I see the church in Formby is Church of England and all of the children were baptised at St. Mary's Little Crosby which is Roman Catholic. If you have time then I would imagine they would have married around 1800 or just before, providing they had no other children prior to those I mentioned.

Thanks once more for your kind offer

This may be well out of date, but at the time you are researching, Catholic couples had to marry in CofE churches for it to be legal, as RC priests weren't (and still aren't... as far as I know... unless it's changed in the last 10 years or so) able to perform a legal marriage. Only when registrars were introduced could a legal marriage take place in a catholic church, when a registrar could attend to issue the certificate (hence the "register office or registrar attended" quote you find on county BMD entries). Registrars could (and can) issue the certificate in advance of the ceremony, providing it could/can be kept in a safe.

I have RC ancestors who baptised all their children from 1798 in St Mary's RC, Highfield St, Liverpool... but married at Walton St Mary in 1798, their local CofE church.

I'm also looking for pre 1801 RC records from Little Crosby.

Trawling old posts again . . .

The last post prompted me to note that St Helen's Church at Sefton is very close to Little Crosby
AND there are several burials of RC's in the churchyard from Little Crosby

The other possibility would be St Michael' at Altcar
