1767 Papist Returns
« on: Monday 08 May 17 10:06 BST (UK) »
Good Morning,
Does any body have a copy of the 1767 Papist Returns for Chester Archdeaconry, which will include the following :

Warrington Deanery
Wigan
Hindley
Leigh
Rainford
Winwick with Lowton
To name a few, but those are the areas I am interested in for a look up please.

The names are Bonney
Dickonson
Allen
Wilson
Throp

All are spelt differently.

Thanks Margie.

Hi
If no one comes up with anything better you can do a surname search on google books.
The only entry I can see is James Wilson weaver but it doesn't allow you to see enough to know where.

John,

Thanks for looking either mine are not RC or they are living somewhere else as I know the subsequent children were Baptized RC, very strange

If you wait a few days will give you the names and ages of the Dickonson & Wilson families.
