| NOTES: | |
| 1: | I suspect that William Dalton was the natural father of Henry Norris. He was referred to as "son of William and Mary Dalton" on their gravestone. |
| 2: | The Baptism records for Thomas and Jane Ellen did not record their birthdates. |
| 3: | The above information is taken from various records held at the Lancashire Record Office in Preston. |
