NOTE:
1: In the baptism record for Joseph Weights at St. John's Parish Church the parents are listed as Robert and Sarah Weights. All of the other information matches what we already know about Robert and Elizabeth and this is clearly an error in the register.
2: The above information comes from the original baptism records held at the Lancashire Archives in Preston.
