Peter Mather

1734 Peter Mather

• Birth Notes

  Peter was from Turton, so this Peter Mather from Deane is not our Peter from Turton (records are missing for Turton).
  
  Name    Petrus Mather
  Baptism Date    17 Nov 1734
  Parish    Deane, Lancashire, England
  Father's Name    John Mather
  Mother's Name    Hult Mather[None]
  Register Type    Bishops Transcripts
  Reference Number    Drm/2/68
  
  Text reads: "Petrus filius (latn for son) Johis Mather de Hult : paion"
  The "Hult" is therefore a place, not mother's name.  Other records show "Hultonia media" and "Hultonia cedia" and "Hultonia superiori", so probably refering to John Mather of Little Hulton (Deane).  This is further supported by "James son of Peter Mather of Little Hulton" being buried 1 Oct at Deane.
  
  Also below the February record is April 1734.  This early period is the old Julian Canendar, where the year changes after 24 March, so the year is 1733, not 1734 as indexed
