General Notes
Martha was the daughter of William Horrocks, a publican.
Because Matty is buried at Bradshaw it was assumed she is a sister of Nathaniel, who's wife and son John are also buried there. However, this seems not to be the case. The burial shows she is of Great Bolton, not Harwood.
Martha Bentley (nee Horrocks) of Deansgate was a widow when she married James Mather by licence in 1840. Martha's father was William Horrocks, a publican. She is also shown as a widow of Great Bolton in the CHESHIRE marriage bonds (and James a manufacturer from Little Bolton). William Horrocks, Innkeeper, was from Bent Gate in Hasligden and also died in 1842, leavivg an estate of about £100 for his widow Sarah to administor.
In 1841, James was recorded as a publican (40) in Deansgate, with his wife "Matty" (30), Sarah Nightingale (25, F.S.), John Yeoman (20), a Hatter and William Coonnaly (30, Irish)
Martha (i.e. Matty) died in 1842, leaving under £100 (see 19 Aug 1843 probate).
