Their ages fluctuate quite a bit and this Mary is a widow so not sure where the other children fit in. :-S :-S

again thank you

You're welcome.

Haslington actually exists and is in Cheshire, about 2 miles from Crewe.

Where did you find the information about his birth in Haslington?

If it's the chap who was lodging with the Clawson family in 1911 on your other thread about Clawsons, that census said he was born c1869 Bacup, and his occupation was felter on the census image.

Name: Samuel Ashton
Age in 1911: 42
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1869

Thank-you, Kucinta, for that explanation.

On that 1911 census, he has his birth year as 1869, but he is considerably older than the lady that he is living with as a boarder, so may actually be this man, born in 1865, and trying to appear slightly younger in 1911. Just a suggestion.

Added:
On the 1881 census he is a cotton doffer, going by the surname Price, living at home, and still Price and living at home in 1891, as a Bobbin borer, and still at home in 1901 as Price a builder's labourer. Not obvious, as Price, in 1911.

Re Patchem's previous post

An Alice Ashton married a Richard Price in1866:

This might be Samuel, pre-dating the marriage, with a probable single mum:

Not sure whether it tallies geographically though - I'm very much a southerner.

It is not necessarily where he was born, but where he thinks he was born.
But about 12 miles, according to google maps and searches.
And in 1871 he was in Newchurch.

Thank you all, giving me plenty to diguist
