Their children were William, John (both blacksmiths), Edward, Thomas, Joseph, Anne, and Samuel, my gt grandfather, who moved from Shrops to Liverpool and ended his days in Manchester. It looks like brothers Edward & Joseph also found his way to Liverpool. Hope to find some long lost Cheshire relatives!

If I am correct Samuel Cheshire was born on 7/9/1817 to John Cheshire and Elizabeth, nee Pool who were married on 3/4/1815. John was born on 27/11/1786. I have built up a family tree which shows that your side of the family descends from Richard Cheshire b 25/2/1722 and mine from Thomas Cheshire b 17/7/1718, both of whom were Abrahams children. Please reply if you want any further info. Regards Roger Cheshire
