Hi Ozi FYI the bottom line here is Aintree (as in Racecourse!) not Ainton

1851 England Census
Name: Ann Swift
Age: 48
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1803
Relation: Wife
Spouse's Name: Richard Swift
Gender: F (Female)
Where born: Ainton, Lancashire, England

Also on 1851 Census, the townland IS Scarisbrick - just for general info - thanks again - much appreciated x

Yvonne

Ah, I wondered where it was as I'm not very familiar with Lancashire. That is the way it was transcribed and the image wasn't clear.

Ozi

No probs Ozi - I know what its like sometimes the typed report is nothing like the handwritten word. I was born in Liverpool and my stomping ground was Aintree, Netherton, Sefton etc - if you are ever stuck for Lancashire/Liverpool places let me know - I may be able to help back.

Thanks again

Yvonne x
