Re: Family History - Winstanley/Sudworth

Judy:

Here is a precis of what I have in my gedcom:

Samual Winstanley married Mary Jane Sudworth August 1, 1891 at Holy Trinity, Ashton In Makerfield.

Mary Jane Sudworth was the daughter of John Sudworth (1849 to 1920) and Ruth Twist (1851 to 1927). John and Ruth were married in 1871 in St. Oswald's RC Church in Ashton in Makerfield.

Ruth was the illegitimate daughter of Elizabeth Twist (1831 to ?). The alleged father was the son of an affluent person in Byrne (possibly a member of the nobility.)

Elizabeth Twist was the daughter of our first set of common ancestors, Joseph Twist and Elizabeth Brown.

John Sudworth was the son of James Sudworth (1806 to ?) - Sorry don't ahve the name of his mother in my gedcom.

James Sudworth was the son of John Sudworth (1778 to ?) and Alice Lowe (before 1785 to ?). John and Alice our second set of common ancestors.
