• General Notes

  Richard is the likely father of Robert, as he married Ann Mather soon after the birth of Robert.
  
  There are also births registered for Richard and Ann Greenhalgh of Harwood, another Richard and Ann of Bury and a third from Sharples.  These cant be the same families (as the Harwood family also had a Robert in 1817) and birth dates overlap.  Therefore, Robert was their only child.
