I can't find his father but all his children were born in Burscough and some christened at Ormskirk.
Jane 1803
John 1808
James 1805-1810
James 1810
William 1813
Richard 1816-1818
Richard 1818

The only Margaret I can find is Margaret Richmond but they married 28.5.1792 which seems too early. i am researchin Hornby and Hodgson b ut he is not in my tree which you can have a look at if I knew how to do it.

Hi Janet, you can also try putting those names into the search box above to see if anyone else on this site has them in their tree. If you find a connection, you can contact the tree owner.

If you would like help with your tree, then why not start a thread of your own and I am sure someone will help you. Cx.

Hello Debi,

It's been over a year since Janet replied to your old message. You can try clicking on her name and sending your message that way. If she still has the same email address, she will be notified.


Meanwhile, as I said to Janet last year, have you tried searching the trees on this site for other connections to your family?
