  Ann Mather fits the profile of the Turton Mather family with connections to Sharples, Turton Bottoms, Astley Bridge and Walmsley. However there are no DNA matches to the 4 tree owners (Oct-2020) and Ann was born Bolton (i.e. not Shaples or Turton).
  
  20 Nov 1858, Ann, daughter of James Mather, a farmer, married James Mason, a widower, at St George's Little Bolton (this cannot be Mary Ann Mather, aged 14 in 1851)
  
  8 Mar 1910, Ann Mason died at Bottom, Sharples.
