• General Notes
  • There are 6 John J Mather births in the 1860s and one in 1877.  There is no birth registered for John of mother Morris, so he is llkely to be the John J Mather (mother Harris which is a transcription error for Morris), born in Halliwell.
    
    In 1881, John was aged 4, living at 121 Chorley Old Rd, Halliwell with parents Samuel and Ellen and family.
    
    In 1891, John was 14, an errand boy, living at 5 Kirk Street, Bolton with mother Ellen (43, a Widow), and Elizabeth and Maud (21 & 11).
    
    In 1901, John  (24) was at 19 Pleasant St., West Bolton, still unmarried with mother Ellen (52) and sister Maud (21). 
    
    Did not marry Eliza Royal in 1903 as that John was the son of Ellis Mather.  It was John Mather (1874-1949) that married Lydia Annette in 1910, then working as a cloth dryer at the bleach works, and he was born in Turton.
    
    Not the Bolton RO marriage to Margaret Croston.  That John Mather was born 1822, Blackrod (and Margaret born 1876, Westhoughton). They had their 3 children registered at Aspull, the first Leonard Croston Mather was born 17-Jan-1909
    
    Possibly died 1905, L.B. aged 28.  Not John (b. 21-Nov-1876), son of Ellis and Matilda, a Chief Estimating Clerk for a cotton manufacturer in Bolton, married to Eliza Royal (b. 19-Sep-1878), and probably not the Widow in Eccles either.
