I think Ladyhawk is probably right. There are 2 James Ashworths b Accrington but it looks as though the other went to Yorkshire where he has a son Richard and the other James's father was Richard. Maybe the Moorfield Pit disaster of 1883 upset James son of James. Maybe someone in the family was injured? If this is the right James he seems to have married a Martha Ann Ashworth in 1891 at St Nicholas, Newchurch. Are they cousins? In 1901 she is a widow with a niece, claytonbradley

No, I'm wrong. I looked at the James and Martha Ann again and she is a widow in 1901 and then has a niece called Taylor with her. In 1891 James and Martha Ann are living next to James Taylor 63 b Baxenden, wife Hannah and 2 grandchildren. Familysearch has James Ashworth m Martha Ann Taylor at Christ Church Accrington in 1884 and says James Ashworth's father is Richard, so it's not James and Martha Ann, cb
