Re: Butterworth

Hi (again)

This baptism for a Thomas Butterworth may be a better fit.

First name(s) Thomas
Last name Butterworth
Birth year -
Baptism year 1784
Baptism date 28 Sep 1784
Baptism place Wadworth
Denomination Anglican
Father's first name(s) John
Father's last name -
Mother's first name(s) Melissa

I've looked up Wadworth on Google Maps and it's about fifteen and a half miles walking distance from Ecclesfield.

Re: Butterworth

In 1798 Thomas son of Thomas Butterworth, a razor grinder of Stannington, was apprenticed to Joseph Butterworth (razor grinder).

Re: Butterworth

Thank you all for your suggestions.
I have made a note of them.
Appreciate your help.

Re: Butterworth

Hello Mark

I have looked at the baptism of Anne and although she was baptised in 1813 her date of birth was noted as 25/10/1808, so the burial above could be her.

Williams date of birth was noted as 12/9/1819

Re: Butterworth

Hi Tony

Thanks for the christening info that's great.

Yes it must be the right Anne and William.
I know the parents are also buried at Christ Church Cemetery Attercliffe.
