FAMILY HISTORY: NORRIS

THE CHILDREN OF JOHN NORRIS

BAPTISM RECORDS:

1: Name: Thomas Henry, son of Henrietta Southworth of Croston, Single Woman
Born: 26 March 1893 Baptized: 30 April 1893 by A. Schönberg, Curate
NOTE: The Curate began to write in John's name then crossed it through.

NOTES:
1: The above baptisms took place at St. Michael and All Angels Parish Church, Croston, Lancashire. Elizabeth's birthdate was illegible but was definitely January 1904.
2: I think Folly Cottage must have been on the border between Eccleston and Croston as the property is variously described as being in either village. On Hugh's baptism record the family are described as "of Croston" but in the 1901 Census they are at Folly Cottage in Eccleston.
