And for Steve and Pam:
"David Wilcockson was undoubtedly Mary's favouite cousin and one for whom both she and Jonathan had great respect."

  1. Do you have a list of the children of William Dilworth and Alice Bibby? I am descended from an Elizabeth Bibby born in 1817 - I believe to an Alice Bibby who was still unmarried at that time. At that time, couples pretty consistently got married right at age 21, so William and Alice should be just right the age for Alice have had a child a year or two before before their marriage.
