I have purchased these 2 images from the GRO

BIRTH of
BOSWORTH, SAMUEL       JONES 
GRO Reference: 1865  S Quarter in WOLSTANTON  Volume 06B  Page 105

Registered  3 August 1865
Born 20 July 1865 at Brindley Ford Wedgewood to Mark Bosworth, Furnaceman
& Prudence Bosworth formerly Jones.
Prudence Bosworth is the informant, same address

Death of
BOSWORTH, SAMUEL  MARK     3 
GRO Reference: 1868  M Quarter in CONGLETON  Volume 08A  Page 196

Registered 14 Mar 1868
Died 10 March 1868 at Childerplay Biddulph, of Scarlatina Maligna
son of Mark Bosworth an Iron Furnace Man.
Prudence Bosworth present at the death is the informant, same address.

I likely won't be purchasing any of the births/deaths of Elizabeth Vickers children.
