Main Events

Reference NumberJohn Critchley had reference number 1432.
BirthHe was born on 24 November 1783 in Prescot, Lancashire, England.1
ChristeningHe was christened on 17 December 1783.1
MarriageHe married Margaret Mollineux on 19 September 1804 This is very confusing because John Critchley a file cutter, married Margaret Molyneux a spinster on 19th September 1804, and then on 9th December, another John Critchley, this one a clay potter and a widower married Martha Marsh, spinster - both events recorded in the records at Prescot, Lancashire. So, there are two John Critchleys, one a file cutter and the other a clay potter. Ann Critchley is the daughter of John Critchleu and his wife Margaret (Molyneux).

Here's the evidence too ... from the Lancashire Parish Clerk site:-

Marriage: 19 Sep 1804 All Saints, Rainford, Lancashire, England
John Critchley - File cutter, Bachelor, Of this Parish
Margaret Mollyneux - Spinster, Of this Parish
Witness: Esther Birchall; Peter Birchall
Married by Banns by: Mathew Robinson Minister
Register: Marriages 1793 - 1812, Page 105, Entry 225
Source: LDS Film 1657567.
His son Thomas Critchley was born in 1806.
His son James Critchley was born on 15 August 1808 in Prescot, England.
OccupationIn 1811 John Critchley was a File Cutter according to the BTs for his daughter Ann's christening (her mother is "Marg't"). Do not confuse this John Critchley with another John Critchley a clay potter who married Martha Marsh.
His daughter Ann Critchley was born on 14 November 1811 in Prescot, Lancashire, England.
His father John Critchley died in 1829.
His wife Margaret Mollineux died on 13 March 1851 in Huyton, England.
