Hi Garstonite, coincidentally I have been researching a branch of my family in Backford and am also related to the Oakes family.

Thomas Humphries and Elizabeth Oakes of Backford are my 6x great grandparents. Elizabeth was the daughter of Ralph Oakes Jr and Mary Trelfa I believe, and Ralph Jr was the son of Ralph Oakes Sr and Mary Holland.

Ralph and Mary Trelfa seem to have many children. All of them up to Elizabeth were born in Middlewich, rest in Backford:

William 1758
John 1760
Thomas 1761
Ralph 1764
Joseph 1765
Mary 1767
Richard 1770
Hannah 1772
Samuel 1774
Elizabeth 1776
Peter 1779
Daniel 1782

Still not sure why they moved from Middlewich to Backford though, and whether any stay in Middlewich.

I've never been to Backford but I don't live very far. I only live in Chester so if there's any graves or houses to see belonging to the family I will definitely go and have a look.
