Lost in Ince
« on: Friday 22 October 04 19:28 BST (UK) »
???  HELP!!!!

Does anyone out there have access to an old map of the Ince in Makerfield area circa 1870?

I am looking for the location of the birth of my Ggrandfather but after months of searching I am more confused than ever.  The details on his Birth Certificate state that he was born in the Hare & Hounds Inn, Rock Farm, Ince, Sub District of Hindley, Registration District of Wigan.

I have been able to locate Rock House in Ince but this does not ever appear to have a farm attached.  There is a pub in Hindley called the Hare & Hounds but I am not sure if it is old enough.

Can any kind soul please give me directions?  :-[
