I'm trying to get this line a bit further back and I'm stuck. Part of my problem is I can't read the flipping image...lol

1851 Bedford
Dickinson family
John 49 b ??
Mary 46 b Burton Wood
William 22 b ??
Margaret 12 b ??
????? 8 b Bedford
Martha 6 b Bedford
Ann 4 b Bedford


Can anyone read the bits I have put question marks on please.
The writing isn't that bad....I just don't know the places.

Thanks.

John's birthplace is Burton Wood Lancs (normally Burtonwood) The 8-year-old is Henry. EDIT Doh, went along the wrong line! pmsl!

Just looking at Wm and Marg.

Thanks Merry....I was hoping for Henry...lol

Lowton makes sense...never heard of it but it looks like that.

None of the places are far from each other - just north of Warrington.

I've said Lowton or Lawton, most likely Lowton for John before:

Shame I didn't say what site I found the possible baptisms at Lowton on, lol!

Thanks Kite,

I was hoping I'd dreamed you found this before, as it was in my brain (such that it is) that I'd asked. I couldn't even find the thread when I searched.........lol

I MUST get my notes in order.
