Minus One Generation : The Poulton Clan

Jane Baxondale

1165

 

Father : Unknown

Mother : Unknown

Born : Wrightington (1781)

 

Jane married Henry Worthington at St Wilfred Church, Standish on 6th December 1802 and had nine children, James, John, Thomas, Jane, Mary, Alice, Peter, Joshua & Elizabeth. Children may not be exact due to the fact that there was another Henry #1851 who married Jane Hooton around the same time in the same area. I have come to the conclusion that all this Henry's children were born in Standish but most of the other Henry's children were born in the surrounding villages. The major problem is identifying them as the main Church of Shevington was St Wilfred in Standish. It didn't have a church until about 1873. She died on 17th February 1853. She was a widow living with her children at Grove Street, Standish in 1841 and with her son Thomas in 1851 in the same Street.
