David WILSON - [Child] of George Wilson and Alice, (1839-1841)
Baptism: 21 Jul 1839 St Mary Magdalene, Clitheroe, Lancashire, England
Born: 30 Jun 1839
Abode: Low Moor
Occupation: Shoemaker
Burial: 27 Feb 1841 St Mary Magdalene, Clitheroe, Lancashire, England
David Wilson, Age: 18 mos., Abode: Lowmoor


I noticed the abode Low Moor. It's only a couple of miles from Aighton/Bailey/Chaigley.
Among Swarbrick/Swarbreck burials at All Hallows, Great Mitton was James, son of James, abode Clitheroe Lower Moor 1790. 2 Swarbrick burials in 1786 were James, pauper, abode Aighton and Bella, daughter of James Swarbreck, abode Aighton. Bella Swarbreck baptism 1785*, daughter of James & Jennet, abode Aighton. Swarbrick marriages at All Hallows included John 1815, abode Mitton, witnesses Thomas & Richard Swarbrick and William 1820, abode Mitton.
I'm beginning to wonder if "Eushum" as Alice's place of birth on a census may have been Aighton. That would fit with Bailey as p.o.b. on another census. I don't know how Aighton is/was pronounced. It may have been a tricky word to spell for someone not used to writing.
Transcriptions of All Hallows baptism registers on LAN-OPC only go to 1812. Alice Swarbrick's baptism may have been  after then.
*Bella Swarbrick baptism 1785. Births of all children born in a parish, regardless of the religious denomination, were supposed to be recorded by the Anglican curate around this time because the government levied a tax on births and marriages which curates had to collect. Paupers were exempt from the tax.

Walter had 7 bro's and sis's. All born 1870-1890 in Newchurch amd Bacup. Not a single parish record (baptism or marriage)...

LAN-OPC added another register for St. Mary R.C., Bacup and St. Mary R.C., Haslingden last week. Check "What's New" tab on Home page.

It definately could be Heysham. I think it really is.  :)    Got it now. Thank you.  And yes, it's from a census.

Which census and whose birthplace was it?

Alice's marriage with Ralph Cottam (17 Jan 1835): Banns in Altham, St James, and in Clitheroe,  St Mary Magdalene

Baptism: 16 Jun 1816 St Peter, Heysham, Lancashire, England
Alice Warbrick - Dau of John Warbrick & Mary
    Abode: Heysham

Baptism: 19 Jul 1812 St Peter, Heysham, Lancashire, England
Nancy Warbrick - Daughter of John Warbrick & Mary
    Born: 9 Jun 1812
    Register: Baptisms 1792 - 1812, Page 43, Entry 1
        Nancy was married to William Backhouse
        William Backhouse and Mary Warbrick were witnesses for Alice's marr 1838


Ellen Warbrick:
Census 1871  Newchurch, born 1799 in "Easam" (also listed Moses, David, Emma Wilson)
Census 1861  Newchurch, born 1800 in "Easum" (also listed Moses, David Wilson)
Census 1851  Farington, born 1803 in Clitheroe (also listed George and Alice Wilson and their kids, and Elizabeth Warbrick b 1837, prob Ellen's dau)
Census 1841 ("Eleen Warbuck") Whalley, Clitheroe (also listed Alice Wilson and dau Mary, Miles Warbrick)

Baptism: 1 Aug 1802 St Peter, Heysham, Lancashire, England
Elen Warbrick - Daughter of John Warbrick & Elen
    Born: 17 Jul 1802
    Occupation: Labourer
    Register: Baptisms 1792 - 1812, Page 19, Entry 3

Elen (also Ellen) as her mother's name doesn't fit in. I guess it's a mistake in the register itself. Couldn't find any other entries of "John and Elen"!

Marriage: 6 Jul 1799 St Mary, Lancaster, Lancashire, England
John Warbrick - (X), Husbandman, Bare in this parish
Mary Dodgson - (X), Spinster, Bare in this parish
    Witness: Ann Dodgson; Eliz. Warbrick, (X)
    Married by Banns by: J. Thomas, Curate.
    Register: Marriages 1795 - 1806, Page 162

John Warbrick, b 1800, died Oct 1801 in Heysham.
Simon Warbrick, b 1805, died Feb 1829 in Clitheroe.
Mary, their last child, was born in 1819 in Heysham.

I guess, Alice's husband John died Dec 1823 in Clitheroe
Burial: 19 Dec 1823 St Mary Magdalene, Clitheroe, Lancashire, England
John Warbrick -
    Age: 45
    Abode: Clitheroe
    Buried by: Rt Heath
    Register: Burials 1813 - 1835, Page 72, Entry 569

So they might have moved from Heysham to Clitheroe sometime between 1819 and 1823.
