  • Notes 
    • The trail goes cold with John.

      The baptism record for Ellen says he was a "Web" - weaver I think, and lived at "Wad" or Wadsworth, which is adjacent to Heptonstall.

      There are a number of children born in the Heptonstall area from 1756 to 1796, with a father named John. Some are born to Sally (RILEY), who married John RILEY 25 Dec 1781, and so are not immediately relevant. I can see no obvious marriages with a John RILEY in the area, and so it is not obvious which other children are his.

      Nor is it therefore possible to identify a baptism and burial date for him.
