looking for Mathew Danson
« on: Tuesday 07 March 23 12:40 GMT (UK) »
I am trying trace Mathew Danson to confirm what information I have is correct, born 1773 in Wigan parents Thomas Danson  and Margaret Walsh the reason for the query I have a child of Thomas and Margaret born 1759 and it seems a long period between the two birth dates.

I cannot see any sign of a baptism in 1773 Wigan for Mathew Danson, son of Thomas and Margaret.
Where did that information come from?
Milligan - Jardine – Glencross – Dinwoodie - Brown: (Dumfriesshire & Kirkcudbrightshire)
Clark – Faulds – Cuthbertson – Bryson – Wilson: (Ayrshire & Renfrewshire)
Neale – Cater – Kinder - Harrison: (Warwickshire & Queensland)
Roberts - Spry: (Cornwall, Middlesex & Queensland)
Munster: (Schleswig-Holstein & Queensland) and Plate: (Braunschweig, Neubruck & Queensland & New York)

There is a Burial 6 Jun 1841 Wigan for Matthew Danson age 68 (1773)
(another record has age 65 c 1776 image is 68, died of decay)
So buried on the day of the 1841 Census which hopefully would have said whether he was born in Lancs or not.

Found him on Family search,I have him in my tree married 16th June 1793, son of Mathew Danson born 1729, married to Margaret Walsh, it is possible I found him originally on Ancestry or Find my past when I had a membership but no longer have.
Thanks for all your replies you have been very helpful.
