In 1861, John and Alice (27 & 25) were at 26 Rock Street, South Bury with their daughter Elizabeth Ann (1). Sarah was with her grandparents back at Little Hulton.

Later in 1861 Betsy was born and her birth registered in Atherton. The family then relocated to Boothstown, Worsley where Betsy died, aged 3 months. Elizabeth also died there, aged 2.

In 1871, John and Martha (37 & 36) were living at 62  Boothstown Lane with Sarah (13), Thomas (9), James (6) and Edith (2)  1835 Elizabeth (Betty) Mather Known as Betty on the 1841 census (when a child), but later as Elizabeth. 1839 Elias (Ellis) Mather 1831 Ann Mather Ann was aged 10 in 1841. 

By 1851, Ann had married Daniel Aldred, a brickmaker's labourer living with her.  They were living with Ann's parents. 1808 - 1877 Thomas Mather 68 68 In 1826 when Thomas married Ann Kirkham, he was a Cordwainer (Shoemaker).

John, Alice and family were at Mather's Fold in 1871. Parents Ellis and Elizabeth were also there (and several other families). 1794 - 1794 Betty Mather ~1750 Mary <unknown> 1872 - 1874 Thomas Ellis Mather 2 2 Thomas probably died an infant, but death record has wrong age and middle initial so TBC 1864 - 1865 Martha Alice Mather 1 1 Martha Alice died before she was 1 year old 1815 - 1878 Betty Mather 63 63 Betty was the daughter of James Thornley, the illegitimate son of Ellis Mather. This caused confusion as to what her name should be.  She was brought up as a "Mather", and used that name for the 1851 census and recording her childrens births, later changed to use the name "Thornley" after 1859 and on the 1861 census.

In 1841, Betty Mather (25) was in Little Hulton with Ann (6), James (4) and Joseph (11 months).

In 1851, Joshua Grundy (head, 42) was with Betty Mather (36, Servant) and 6 children shown as lodgers at Dunkirk, Hittle Hulton:  Ann (15), Thomas (12), Joshua (10), Sarah (8), Mary (3) and Ellen Mather (1), all born Little Hulton.

In 1861, Betty was named Betty Thornby and all the children were named Thornby, not Mather or Grundy.  However, all births between 1851 and 1861 are mother (and father) named Mather, so all are illegitimate, probably Joshua Grundy's who Betty is still living with.

In 1871, Betty (52) is now named Betty Thomley.  She is still with her 5 youngest: Mailce (19), Martha (18), Robert (16), William (14) and Sarah Jane (12).

Sean, Cory and Paul Mather all have DNA matches to James Cox. He has this Mather tree in his tree, pur there is no Mather connection. ~1795 Margaret (Peggy) Mather 1816 John Mather 1818 Thomas Mather 1831 Harriet Mather In 1861, Harriet Heyes had her father living with her. ~1770 - 1803 Edmund Mather 33 33 In Mar 1803, Edmund Mather (or Madder), Newhouse, Rossendale died and was buried as Haslingden.  4 days earlier, Betty, daughter of Abraham Mather of Newhouse was also buried.

There was also an Edmund Mather (1796-1830) from Rossendale which is assumed to be his son, or this is simply another family from Rossendale (possibly a son of Robert from Brindle). 1871 - 1873 Mary Mather 2 2 ~1750 Edmund (Edwin) Mather Edmund Mather of Worsley, a weaver. 1809 Elizabeth (Betty) Mather Elizabeth (Eliza) the daughter of Ellis Mather, was baptised at Eccles, married 1828 (replationship confirmed by christian names and household group).

This is probably NOT a Mather connection. 1786 Edmund Mather 7 May 1806, Edmund Mather, Weaver, married Betty Wilkinson at Bolton St Peter. 1876 John Mather UNCONFIRMED as marriage to Leah Evans seems likely, and no death for her, so may be wrong John for second marriage (who was from Bolton).

Possibly mother is Timperley (as births from Little Hulton)

In 1901, John (25) and Leah (22) were in Little Hulton with daughter Ellen (1 mo) and two other Evans family.

Nanny Buckley 1813 Peter Mather In 1816, there is a Peter Mather who married Sarah Ann at Farnworth.  That was probably Peter of Prescot, son of James and Margaret who died Aug 1818 at Eccleston and is buried at Farnworth St Luke, aged 23.
