General Notes
- There is no birth registered for Elizabeth with MMN = MATHER, so she may be from another marriage. The three Elizabeth Haslam biths registeres in 1845-46 are others:
  1) The daughter of Peter and Sarah Haslam nee Dumbhill, fatmers of Tong, Sharples.
  2) The daughter of John and Mary Yates (not Gates) who moved from Bolton to Manchester
  3) The daughter of Samuel and Margaret Greenhalgh who died in 1848 aged 1.
  Therefore she must be an adopted daughter, probably Mary's from an earlier marriage.
  
  25 Nov 1868, Elizabeth, daughter of John Haslam a weaver of Emmanuel Street married Thomas Booth.
