Civil Registration event: Birth Name: STRICKLAND, Sarah Elizabeth Hall Registration District: Wigan County: Lancashire Year of Registration: 1858 Month of Quarter: Jan-Feb-Mar Mother's Maiden Name: Not available before 1911 Q3 Volume No: 8C Page No: 33 Civil Registration event: Birth Name: STRICKLAND, Ann Hall Registration District: Wigan County: Lancashire Year of Registration: 1860 Month of Quarter: Jan-Feb-Mar Mother's Maiden Name: Not available before 1911 Q3 Volume No: 8C Page No: 31 Civil Registration event: Birth Name: BARFORD, Thomas Registration District: Bolton County: Lancashire Year of Registration: 1869 Month of Quarter: Jul-Aug-Sep Mother's Maiden Name: Not available before 1911 Q3 Volume No: 8C Page No: 305 Mark, I agree with you. If the father died in 1852, where have all the children with his name come from? Perhaps some certificates are needed to determine the parentage. And where is Nancy?

	Mother's name was still Strickland. Perhaps there was no father named on birth certs.
