Frances Hepworth - born 1821

Frances Hepworth was my great-great grandmother and was born in Ireland in 1921.  I am trying to find out where she born and the names of her mother and father.

Just to clarify for others, are you are seeking Frances Hepworth born 1821 (as in your "Subject"), not 1921 as in your posting?

Also, just to be aware that you are pushing really far back in the context of what Irish records are available, so expectations need to be commensurate.

BTW, how did you establish the forename "Frances"?  In the previous threads her name was "Fanny"?

A quick glance for Hepworth presence in Ireland brings back very few hits (eg. tithe applotment records, Griffiths Valuation, 1901/11 census records), I may be wrong, but it makes me wonder if you are on the right track ...

My apologies.  i should have typed 1821.  The reason why I put 'Frances' instead of 'Fanny' was that when I received her daughter's birth certificate.  Her mother was down as 'Frances'.

I just followed the links above and was brought back to here 

I'm with gaffy - not sure with this one. I know she says born Ireland but that may not mean the family are Irish. 

The witness at the marriage is Rachel Stubley. I can only find one living in Batley in 1841  1267/ 16/ 25

Also in Batley at 1841   1267 / 6 /  5  there is a John Hepworth 55 yrs  a Woollen Weaver born in county with Margret 55 yrs b Ireland and Joseph 15 yrs b Ireland..

There may be no connection at all but you may want to look at the Hepworths.

Just seen a marriage of a Samuel Hepworth in 1838 - Batley, with a father John, clothier - the same as Fanny.

Irish Genealogy has some Hepworths living in Dublin around the 1820's

Freebmd has a Frances Hepworth Hinchliffe under "Deaths Dec 1900", registered at Leeds, Volume 9b page 310, but the informed age is 50, I wonder if this is a mistranscription (ie. 80)? 

See below.

Disregard my last two posts, this is Frances Hepworth Hinchliffe who was married to a Frederick Hinchliffe.

Who would have thought there would be someone with such a similar name? lol.
