Hallworth family of Norbury, Cheshire

 

 

The mother of Sally Booth was Mary Washington, born on 30th October 1805 at Bramhall and baptised on 14th November 1805 at Tiviot Dale Chapel Wesleyan Methodist Chapel, Heaton Norris, Lancashire.

 

Mary was the daughter of William Washington, a weaver, whose ancestry has not yet been traced, and Dinah Hallworth.

William and Dinah were married on 23rd July 1799 at St Mary's Stockport. William was buried at St Thomas's Norbury on 11th August 1852, and Dinah was buried there on 29th September 1861. (Incidentally she seems to be missing from the 1861 Census).

 

Dinah was baptised at the High Street Presbyterian Chapel in Stockport on 9th December 1782 as Dinah Haworth. Her parents were John Hallworth and Mary Torkington, who married on 25th October 1768 at St Mary's Stockport.
