Does anyone know where the above records would be?. Specifically looking for Anne Sawrey baptised circa 1713.

There is a quaker record for an Ann Sawrey, daughter of John Sawrey and Bridget his wife of Height on the 4th day of the 11th month of 1708,  (I think that is 4th of Jan or Feb 1708 - Julian calendar). Its in the quarterly meeting records for Lancashire for 1644 -1775. It also appears in the Swarthmore records.

Thanks Gan Yam. Her husband was born 1702, so a 1708 birth is a little more likely than 1713.

The 4th of the 11th month 1708 would be January 4th 1709 by our modern reckoning

Thanks Old Bristolian.  Her age at death is recorded as 77 but  81 is close . Heck during her life they even changed the  calender on people.
