General Notes
WARNING: Another family; Richard Mather married Mary Scowcroft in 1844 and had Robert (1845) and 3 daughters Frances, Esther and Alice (registered Bury N).
There are several (4) Solomon Mathers in our tree, and not all are related. This Solomon was a printer (not painter) at Elton near Bury, so it was likely he was. However, his family appears to have originated from Blackburn.
In 1841, Solomon and Jane (both 20) are at Part of Elton Fold, Elton, Bury with Elizabeth (2) and Mary (10mo).
Coalheaver in 1851
Printer in 1858 - 1863
Block Printer in 1866 - 1868
Labourer (at Iron Foundry) in 1870 and 1871
Driller in 1878
In 1836 Solomon and Jane lived at 68 Victoria Street, Elton. Jane may have been spending too much on fashion (see news clip) as Solomon had to stop her credit.
In 1871, Solomon (52, Widower) was with still with his daughter Rachel (13) at Elton. All the other daughters had married. John Hampson (33, maried) was a visitor.
