| NOTES: | |
| 1: | As some of these events date back more than 300 years the available information is lacking in detail. |
| 2: | There is a strong possibility that William and Alice had other children. I've found other baptism and burial records relating to a William Critchley of either Claughton or Nateby but can't be sure that they relate to Alice's family without more evidence. |
| 3: | All of the above information is taken from published transcripts for Church of England and Roman Catholic churches and the Wills of William and Dorothy held at the Lancashire Record Office. |
