well , it`s been quite a few weeks since I was on Roots chat but have been searching on and off throughout. Time is a big factor and working doesn`t help. I am sure I am right with a Peter Corns being the father of John Corns (Prescot ) and his daughter Alice wed ? Winstanley (Kathleen Winstanley is/was related) . John, son of John was my Grandfather and Moses Corns was killed in a coalmine accident (I think he fell off a roof ) 1925/7 .

There is a death registered for Moses Corns in 1919 aged 25
