	Thank you ,the report Ann sent would seem to indicate that this David Poole was the grandson of Rev.Peter Saxton of Leeds. Both Peter Saxton and a much earlier one, were the incumbents at St Peter's in Leeds . Which might explain David Poole's involvement with the church of the day. The fact his daughter was named Silence I think adds to the presumption.(he had married Elizabeth Taylor)at Preston . I suppose as a sugar merchant he must have travelled around which might explain his residence in Knittongly. Preston ,Manchester and Liverpool. What I have not connected is Barbara Poole wife of William Massey who married at Runcorn. So it may be that the name Poole us just a coincidence and despite the failed marriage contract between David Poole and William sister, Elizabeth Massey at Manchester , Poole and William remained business associates? Thank you all for your suggestions ,I need now to look at the Poole family in Knottingly, I think
