Have you looked at Euxton(Hall) Chorley? This was a domestic chapel for the Anderton & Molyneux families. The Lancashire Record Office has a hand written copy of the baptisms 1740 - 1815.

A am still puzzling over your Henry Prescott.
You say the baptisms of the older children were at St Gregory's, could you give me the names and birthdates of these children and did you record the godparents names as these are very significant and helpful in RC baptisms.

Also was the gravestone at St Chads very clear to read?

I may have had a breakthrough with your Henry Prescott.

Baptism at St Wilfrid's RC Preston
16th June 1775
Henry Prescot son of David & Jane. Godparents Henry Wigan & Jane Rushton.

There is a lot more info. that I now have. If you send me a PM with your email address I will tell you what I have discovered.

Hope it's him!!

Hi

PM sent and the gravestone was in very good condition only a slight bit of weather wear near the bottom

this looks promising as the dates fit in

Sadly did not record godparents details
