For the record, William Eccleston was baptised on 25 February 1838 at Neston, mother Hannah, father William Eccleston. Their abode was "Nep". William senior was a Collier.
FMP have images both from the Parish Register and also from the Bishop's Transcript. |

On the 1851 census Hannah is aged 42 and born in Ness (in the parish of Neston), Cheshire.

In 1841 it states William senior was not born in Cheshire, and the letters "So" seem to be written in the last column. I wondered if he was Scottish.

Some records have them as Eccles, so this may be William's birth reg (right date and right reg district)
Births Mar 1838 Eccles William Wirral 19 293

Quote:
The 'Where Born' column indicates the answers to the following questions: 1) If born in England or Wales, whether the person was born in country - the answers where Yes or No. 2) If not born in England, whether born in Scotland, Ireland or Foreign Parts. The usual abbreviations were S for Scotland, I for Ireland or F for Foreign country. Therefore what looks like So (or Sc?) means he was born in Scotland. |

There is a birth for a William Ecclestone in South Leith, Midlothian, on 9 July 1811 (baptised 28 July). Parents are William Ecclestone and Margaret Hill.
Doesn't help with Hannah, though! EDIT: Looks as if Merry has cracked the case. |
