Confused on Nancy. Ref;to CaroleW. 1851 clearly shown as Morris - here's the reference.  Nancy is Ann

HO107 Piece 2206 Folio 187 Page 44

I searched using Alice - no surname b Farnworth 1841 +- 1yr

I hope i don't sound stupid is Ann another name for Nancy or do you think Nancy;s had a middle name as Ann.

It's not uncommon to find Ann's listed as Nancy  - it could have been a preferred family name.    A bit like Ellen = Nellie
