NOTE

IGI records her parents as Ben Jackson & Margaret Ann Dailey which is completely false (according to her marr. cert.). Liv. at 11 Cobden St., Worsley (1881) with Moses & son Fredric. As with Moses her details were submitter on the IGI by a relative of the above Frederick who emigrated to Utah, USA. Her parents on there are false. Her marriage cert. records her father as William Johnson, Carter (alive in 1878). He may have been a witness also. Her marr. cert suggests she was just 2 yrs younger than Moses but the census records her birth years as 1860. 1901 census records birth at Bradley, Staffs., and year 1858. IGI records her last name as 'Jackson', bap. 6.6.1862 at Dudley, Wolverhampton. As with Moses I cannot find any Frances Johnson's born in any of these areas in the years between 1854 - 1861 in the 1861 census so maybe the 1862 at Dudley may be the correct one. Their gravestone is illigible, especially her details.

Fredric died in infancy & Ann died aged 4 yrs.

The 1871 census records Moses with his parents at 14 Church St., Wednesfield, West Midlands. His birthplace is recorded as 'West Hampton'. By 1881 he had left for Lancashire & after marrying, the family lived at No 11 Cobden St., Worsley, Lancashire. In 1891 the family was recorded at 2 Knowles Sq., Irlam o th Height, Pendlebury. SEE here.

In 1901 the family were living at 219 Swinton Hall Road, Swinton St Peter. SEE here.

Death date is taken from gravestone.

Marr. witnessed by William Johnson & Mary Ann Spring****. Moses couldn't write.
