Hello sem73
I am really sorry to trouble you, I did find the photograph of William Billington and Eliza (Simmons), thank you and such a clear view.
Unfortunately, I still haven't been able to locate the other photographs re the pm you sent to me. Would it be possible to point me to the right direction where they are located.
I have all the families listed as descendants of my 5xgrt grandfather Hugh Billington, Hatter from Nantwich.
The only query I still have is the photograph from the Nantwich Barony of William and Annie Billington, hopefully the information on the gravestone will point me to the correct descendants.
Thank you, marthaannie

Hello MarthaAnnie
I have just joined this site and saw your post regarding the Billington family .
My great -auntie on my fathers mothers side was called Margory Billington (nee Platt) she was married to George Billington She was 18 years younger than my grandmother Elizabeth and was the youngest of 8 children . Six Girls including indentical twin sister Elsie and Evelyn Platt ) another sister Bertha Platt and Emily Platt (.Mother of Gordon Platt born 1923 ) .There were also two boys Alfred and Stanley Platt who died as young babies 9 and 18 months Nanna told me . Great Auntie Margory and George Billington never had any children sadly . She mentioned this often . They used to have rescue dogs one was called Trixie . I visited Nantwich with my family many times as a child and teenager and often stayed with auntie Margory and uncle george who alsways made us so welcome .with my parents siblings and nanna and grandad Henry ( known as Harry ) in the big house she lived in in Park Road think it was called 'Ferndale 'in Nantwich or we stayed with Auntie Emily or Auntie Elsie who lived in same road and around the corner in next road . My grandmother's name was Elizabeth Bowker (nee Platt) she was born on 18th November 1882 .
I would love pictures of gravestones of my ancestors both sides of my fathers side( Donald Crawford Bowker born 20th October 1933) in Wolverton Buckinghamshire . His father was Henry Crawford Bowker Born 18 November 1889 Conway North Wales gravestones . My fathers Grandmother fathers side was Maria Jane Bowker (nee Twigg ) who was widowed early when her husband Earnest Crawford Bowker passed away she remarried Mr Birchall and she passed away in 1934. Would love pictures of gravestones Bowker Billington Birchall Platt Twigg.if Sarah who made posts regarding Photos of gravestones in All Saints Barony Nantwich and Whitehouse lane sees this please get in contact or anyone who thinks they may be related to me .Birchalls are via my great Grandmother Maria Jane Bowker (nee Twigg ) then Birchall.
Thanks in advance .
Kind Regards.

Hello Debbi
Welcome to RootsChat.
Apologies for not replying to you sooner.
I have checked my extensive Index of the Billington family, although I have numerous with the name of George, unfortunately, I don't have a George Billington married to a Marjory Platt.
Do you have a copy of the marriage certificate of George and Marjory, which should tell you the name of George's father and his address at the time of marriage.
Happy to check my Index again if you have any further information on George.
I do have an Arthur Billington married to a Florence May Platt.
Regards,
marthaannie
