First of all Adelle, if you are getting the info via google, that is just someone else's research, and may not be correct at all, or may be a different branch of Entwistles.

From the last ancestor you are certain of ( ie the earliest one you have found in a census, or have a birth cert for) you can use Parish records to work back before registration.

If you go to https://familysearch.org/search

and enter John Entwistle for example you will see there is more than one possibility.

If the info you found was on someone's tree, contact them , they may be able to direct you to the sources they used so you can check them for yourself
