Hi Flooze

Welcome to rootschat.  :)

I think you will probably have to buy the marriage certificate for this.  The Lincoln registration district covers all the places mentioned here http://www.ukbmd.org.uk/genuki/reg/districts/lincoln.html

By 1851 William has remarried;

F/S has some children for WILLIAM/LUCY Swain;
HANNAH 1822 Coventry, Warwickshire
MARIA 1826  Leek, Staffordshire
EMMA/ELIZA 1829 Leek, Staffordshire
JAMES 1833 Bosley, Cheshire

Burial;
Lucy SWAINE
12 Jan 1836, Congleton, Cheshire
Married, age 35, Spouse WILLIAM

Charles Swains 1878 Marriage Cert would confirm my theory that the above William is his Father.

Lastly in 1841 in Astbury, Cheshire we have;
CHARLES Swain, 15, Apprentice Silk Weaver, in the Household of James Kennedy

William and Family are in Astbury as well (1841 Census posted earlier)

He seems to have been born in Lancashire.

Births Jun 1902   
SWAIN    Charles Patrick        Fylde    8e   694

It would make sense to ask about him on the Lancs board where folk are likely to have more Lancs resources http://www.rootschat.com/forum/lancashire/
