Thank you so much for the help.  Your information and the headstone has convinced me that Hugh is John's brother and that Thomas is also a brother.  That is a great bonus.  I appreciate your help.

John's birthplace is listed as Inskip. 

I was doing a query on Billion Graves and found a gravestone of Hugh Swarbrick who died in 1896.  On the stone is shows that Hugh had 2 brothers, Thomas and John.  Still looking to see if this is the same John and Hugh Swarbrick.

This may be the same record that you are looking at.

Thanks

Lancashire / Hugh Swarbrick born about 1825 in Lancashire, England

I am working on John Swarbrick's (my 2nd great grandfather) family.  He was born about 1824.  He married Elizabeth Singleton in 1850.  John was born in Lancashire.  On his wedding record, one of the witnesses was listed as Hugh Swarbrick.  I think Hugh is John's brother, but I haven't been able to confirm it.  Does anyone have information on Hugh Swarbrick?

Thanks

My Ballard family is from Lancashire although I am not aware of any from Stretford.  My Ballard line is from around Wigan and to the north and west.

Lancashire Lookup Requests / Re: William Porter of Lancashire

Thank you for helping me out with this.  I had also found that Nancy had a cousin about her age named William Porter.  Your information gives me another possibility.  Great job.

Lancashire Lookup Requests / William Porter of Lancashire
« on: Wednesday 27 January 21 02:26 GMT (UK)  »
I am trying to figure out the Father of Great Grand Aunt is.  My Great Grand Aunt is Mary Collinson, born in 1850 and christened on July 21, 1850 in Thornton, Lancashire, England.  Mary was born to Nancy Collinson (1832-1911).  Nancy was not married at the time of Mary's birth.  Nancy later married Stephen Ballard on Feb. 8, 1853.

Mary married Cornelius Fairclough on Feb. 4, 1871.  On the marriage record Mary's Father is listed as William Porter, a Farmer.  I have tried to figure out who William Porter is, but haven't found anything definitive. 

Any help on this mystery is helpful.  Thank you in advance.
