This is slightly different from safc's

England, Cheshire Parish Registers, 1538-2000
name: James Prescot
event: Christening
event date: 20 Jun 1779
event place: Tarvin, Cheshire, England
gender: Male
father: James Prescot
mother: Mary
digital folder number: 4018710



And this looks like a relative, even a step brother:
name: John Prescott
event: Christening
event date: 17 Feb 1799
event place: Tarvin, Cheshire, England
gender: Male
father: James Prescott
mother: Ann
digital folder number: 4018710

Yes, Ozibird, this is them. This tallies as Ann died in 1855.

And, safc - thanks, these could be James's parents

Can anyone help me with some Cheshire records, please?

My gggg grandfather James Prescott was born in Cheshire in 1781 and married Ann Maddox (who according to the 1841 census was not born in Cheshire) on 31 December 1798 at St Andrew's Church, Tarvin.

I seem to have hit a brick wall :-( Any info regarding siblings or parents of either would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks

Maurice
