Family of Solomon Mather & Mary (Mally) Grime

Personal Details
- Solomon Mather
  
  1854-Apr-15 Solomon Mather Death
  
  Solomon was born in June 1789 in Turton.²
  - Birth Notes
    - Aged 50 in 1841 at Crown Point, Edgworth
      Aged 61 in 1851, born Turton
      Aged 64 in 1854 when died, so born about 1790.
      
      There is no baptism on record for Solomon, so it is likely he is one of those baptised at Walmsley, where records were lost. He is likely to be the son of Isaac who had a brother Solomon.
      
      1851 Census also show place of birth as Turton, and its possible (but not confirmed) his son was named Isaac after his father Isaac Mather. If that is correct, he must be born at least a year before sister Ann, so born about Mid 1789. This would be the first child after 4 Jan 1787 marriage, a perfect fit, else theres a 4 year gap before first child.
  He died at the age of 64 on April 13th, 1854 in Eagley.³
