Ellen Howarth

Ellen was born in 1741 in Livesey and her baptism took place on June 28th, 1741 at St. Mary-the-Virgin (Blackburn).

Birth Notes
- Ellen had children 1781 to 1788, that all died in infancy. However it is unlikely she was much over 40 when having John, so probably born about 1745, and married 1762, when 21.
