General Notes
WARNING: This could be the John Mather b.1785 son of John and Jane, also weaver from Bolton & Deane who may have married Ann Whittle in 1826, so two families combined.
On 15 Apr 1811, John and his sister Jane had a double marriage. John Married Ann Coup and Jane Married Thomas Taylor of Deane.
John and Ann had their children baptised at Deane, altholugh they lived in Great Bolton. John was a weaver.
