General Notes
William (aged 9 so born 1832) is placed out of order in the 1841 census, but was baptised 1832 son of James and Mercy. John (15) and Samuel (12) are then listed from his previous marriage, followed by the three daughters.
In 1859, William married Martha Smith. (This is the only Bolton marriage to a Martha, and the 1852 Manchester marriage to Martha Robert is probably too early).
In 1861, William Mather (27), and his wife Martha (22) are at 18 Milk Street with their first son William Thos (6 mo). They stayed in Western Bolton till about 1869, and after then the children's births are registered in Little Bolton.
In 1871, Martha (32) and William T (10) are lodging at 5 Nelson Court, Little Bolton. Martha has returned to using her maiden name SMITH, and husband William is missing. However in November 1871 daughter Martha Alice Mather is baptised, with address Nelson Court, Little Bolton.
In 1869, Herbert was baptised. The baptism records with parents named. However BMD records show the mother as SMITH and burial records confirn the father is WILLIAM.
William and Martha moved from West Bolton to Little Bolton 1868 or 1869, as Herbert and Martha were born (and baptised) in L.B.
