Children
- Samuel Brereton
  Samuel was born in December 1840 in Harthill.⁶
  - Birth Notes
    
    Aged 40 in 1881, Born Hart Hill
    
    Samuel was 3 months old in 1 April 1841, so born about Dec 1840 (or early Jan 1941). There are no Cheshire birth records that match. The closest UK (1840-41) match is Samuel Brereton born Q2/1841, Stoke-on-Trent, but that birth is still too late.
    
    Samuel must have been illegitimate (or adopted) and recorded under his mother's name.
  He died at the age of 44 on April 30th, 1885 in Northwich.⁹
