General Notes
Marriage to Margaret Andrews in 1787 is a likely candidate (as aged 22). John and Esther Entwistle in 1874 by license is too early (although possible DNA 12cM DNA link with Annaleise Nicholls)
Marriage to Jane Watson in 1791 is very possible, as children baptised at Ridgway Gates Wesleyan, which would tie in with sister Happy Lomax's children.
He may have marrried a Betty. John and Betty Chadwick were married in 1789 and alive in Bolton in 1841, but could easily be another as John Lomax is a common name in these times.
