The 1911 states Benjamin and Margaret were married 28 years, which fits with the info you found, so she cant have died in 1901.

There's only one Atherton with mum's MS=Crook born in Preston whose age in 1871 would be 7, so here's your Sinclair:

Births Sep 1863 (>99%)
ATHERTON Cecily Clare Preston 8e 413

Clearly, I'm implying an enumerator mistranscription of Thomas's form.

Rebecca Report 31 Jul 2010 15:03

could you please help me with something else if you can.....Thomas Atherton born c1826-1905 he was born in chaigley, Lancashire (this a various spellings on census records) it says on his wedding certificate that is Father was William Atherton he worked as a coal dealer i found a possible record of a William Atherton born c1795 lancashire with children Elizabeth b1823 chaigley and James 1836 chaigley do you think this is the right William????

Chaigley is in Mitton parish, but there's no online records of baptisms after 1812. There is some Wm's marr ;

Marriage: 22 Nov 1824 All Hallows, Mitton, Lancashire, England
William Atherton - of Mitton
Ellen Snape - of Mitton
Witness: Edward Snape; Alice Walmsley
Married by Banns by: John Wilson, Vicar
Notes: [Record numbering increases by 100 and skips from 231 to 332.]
Register: Marriages 1813 - 1837, Page 78, Entry 332
Source: LDS Film 919152

but who knows how that relates to your mob - I can't find Thos in 1841 or 1851.
