Anthony Lawton - England and Wales Death Registration Index 1837-2007
« on: Tuesday 01 June 21 10:06 BST (UK) »
I'm trying to figure out if my Anthony Lawton (mar. Ann Yates 4 Feb 1818 in Sedgley, Staffordshire) is the same person who matches this death register:

"Anthony Lawton
England and Wales Death Registration Index 1837-2007
Event Type:   
Death
Registration District:   
Dudley
Name:   
Anthony Lawton
Death Date:   
1846
Death Place:   
Dudley, Staffordshire, England"

Also, I'm trying to figure out if he is the same person as this Anthony Lawton:

Anthony Lawton (ch 21 Aug 1796 Manchester, Lanchashire, England)

I'm not sure if I'm correct, but I think that Anthony Lawton is the son of Anthony Lawton ch. 18 Mar 1770 Keele, Staffordshire, England. So there is a connection to Staffordshire. It's just a bit anomolous that he would be christened in Manchester. Also, there is an Anthony Lawton who got married in Manchester:

Anthony Lawton
Sex:   
Male
Spouse's Name:   
Ellen Appleton
Spouse's Sex:   
Female
Marriage Date:   
23 Apr 1792
Marriage Place:   
Manchester, Lancashire, England

If I can figure out how Manchester, Sedgley and Keele are all connected, that would be interesting. If this is correct, I've tried to reconstruct the male line as follows:

Edward Lawton = Mary Pickerin (d. 1687)
John Lawton (ch 3 May 1681 Keele) = Sarah Dale
William Lawton (ch 23 August 1719 Wolstanton, d. 1803) = Elisabeth
Joseph Lawton (ch 22 Jan 1748 Keele) = Anne Ward
Anthony Lawton (ch 18 Mar 1770 Keele, Staffordshire, England) = Ellen Appleton
Anthony Lawton (ch 21 Aug 1796 Manchester, Lanchashire, England) = Jane Yates
Sampson Lawton (abt 1826 Kingswinford, Staffordshire) = Phoebe Cooper




England: Booth, Bridgewater, Brown, Buckley, Cooper, Hopley, Holt, Hughes, Kirkham, Laughton (Lawton/Lotton), Lewis, Stevenson, Tunley, Yates

Scotland: Eaton (Ayton), Bell, Carr, Carrie (Kerrie), Cobb, Fyfe, Kent, Miller, Ochterlony (Auchterlonie), Taylor
