Unless there has been a transcription error, there doesn't appear to be.

thanks to all for your help ..I am giving up on this one .I cannot find any Corbridges ..but they all seem to be returned to Warrington to be buried (when they have passed away of course ) ..it is really strange and there must be a strong link to Warrington but I cannot find it

Surely the link is through the birthplace of William Price's wife?

Williams wife is from Warrington ..the children were born Warrington but did not live there they lived and died miles away ..the first of this family to be buried in Warrington was the son Robert he was killed in ww1 and even though his parents were living in London he was buried in Warrington as was but years after his father and mother ..I wonder what made them return his body to Warrington when they lived over 100 miles away ..then when William and Mary died they to were interred in Warrington ..then in 1997 Mary Corbridge was interred in Warrington then 2014 the ashes of the second Mary Corbridge were interred in Warrington ..I cannot find any Prices or Corbridges in Warrington now and am stumped as to the very strong pull Warrington has for this family and who gives permission for the grave to be opened ..a puzzle I cannot seem to solve at all
