General Notes
John probably had a brother Thomas, as they had their children (Alice) baptised on the same day. Early, when the children were being baptised, John was a weaver, but later became a shopkeeper.
In 1841, John is 55 on the census, living at Water Street, Little Bolton. A year earlier, James Mather of Water St, his brother married Martha Bently. His father John was shown as a shopkeeper.
In 1841, after James had married, John (55) was with presumably his son John, aged 20.
John is recorded as a shopkeeper on son Joseph's second marriage of 1845 (and on a probate record).
