    Thomas married Ann Hesketh on 8 Apr 1850 in Holy Trinity with St Mary, Tarleton. Ann (daughter of Barnaby Hesketh) was born in 1824 in Tarleton; died in 1867 in Burscough; was buried on 21 Sep 1867 in Holy Trinity with St Mary, Tarleton. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    • Also Known As: Anne Watkinson
    • Baptism: 20 Jun 1824, Holy Trinity with St Mary, Tarleton

    Notes:

    There is some doubt over Ann's maiden name: the baptism record confusingly says she is the daughter of Barnaby Hesketh, spinster; and the marriage record for Thomas Hilton and Ann Edmondson (wid) gives the bride's father as Barnaby Hesketh. But the Ann widowed when William Edmondson died in 1848 married him as Ann Watkinson, with no father's name given. Also, the baptism record for their second child states: 'Surname originally entered as Watkinson, then deleted and replaced with Edmondson'.
