1: I originally had the wrong parents for Elizabeth as there were two couples in Eccleston that had daughters called Elizabeth. Thank you to Gerry for pointing out my error.
2: The above information is taken from various records held at the Lancashire Archives in Preston, and from an image of the marriage register online at www.ancestry.co.uk.
