General Notes
- This Ann did not have had an illegitimate son James Mather born in April 1811. James was baptised as son of Ann Mather at Walmsley 5 months before she married Ralph and Mary was born before September
  
  Ann married Ralph Isherwood (1811) or Thomas Horrocks (1817) in Bolton or Isaac Turner (1813) in Deane (but no match for Turton 1801-1818). Actually sisters Ann and Esther married two Isherwood cousins? on the same day 4 Sep 1811. It may have been a shotgun wedding as Mary was baptised 2 weeks later.
  
  Another possibility is in 1838 Ann Mather, dau of Isaac Mather of Edgworth married John Nelson, a shoe maker of Edgworth.
  
  In 1851, Ann (60, Head, Wid) and 7 children (one probably a grandchild, 8wks) are living in Peters Street, Preston.
