Village in Whitford Parish?
« on: Wednesday 23 May 18 08:58 BST (UK) »
I've just received (what I was hoping was) my 2 x great-grandfather's birth certificate. I don't think it's him after all as the parents don't match expectations, although with so many Joneses I may have made a mistake in my initial research.

I'm just wondering if this location makes any sense to someone with local knowledge? My Googling has drawn a blank, although that's partly because I can't really discern what I'm looking at!

The man I'm looking for is listed in other documents as being born in Mostyn.
Houghton - Lancashire, inc. Manchester
Robertson - Angus
Collinge - Yorkshire, Lancashire, USA
Nedderman - Lancashire
Lane/Fryer - Kent
