2712 The Betsy Ann Ward who died in Lincolnshire in 1958 was born in 1872 according to England & Wales deaths 1837-2007 Transcription from FindMyPast.

That can't have been this Betsy Ann Ward as that would have made her 10 when her first child was born.

In the census she was 31 in 1891. 
SKIPWORTH, Betsy Ann (I04086)
 
2713 The children's names all check out with the family listed in S&S on page 322. CAMPBELL, Norman Allen (I106)
 
2714 The date given in the Brother's Keeper source is '1892', which I've altered. GUTHRIE, Annette (I3425)
 
2715 The date is difficult to read. WYATT, John (I2037)
 
2716 The date of marriage is my conjecture. Family: FINLAYSON, Donald / MCLEAN, Annie Mary (F93)

2720 The executors of Heather's estate were Vernon Smith and Venice Chidiac. SMITH, Heather Joan Naomi (I349)
 
2721 The fact he was in England in the 1891 census shows the emigration date is incorrect. In fact the name of the ship looks to be incorrect too. WALKLEY, Sidney Stanley (I03913)
 
2722 The family lived there on Skipworth's farm for 1 year. (Source Pat's notes) WARD, Mr William (I1162)
 
2723 The father of Joseph Torkington was recorded as John Torkington, by Mavis Russell I think. But the marriage cert forJoseph gives his father as Samuel Torkington. Here I adopt the Samuel Torkington as the father. 990208. TORKINGTON, Samuel (I1193)
 
2724 The first name is indistinct in Christeen's chart. WORTHINGHAM, [Sarah ?] Dorothy (I3227)

2726 The following notes from Alvin Smith

In the Emigrants List (1857), he is aged 32. D. date from Ian Neil-Smith's photo of the gravestone. However, the gravestone also gives the age to be 63 years. But the adopted birth and death dates imply an age of 61 years 8 months. See the Leigh cemetery xeroxes. He left Lochalsh when aged two (Neil Robinson, 'Lion of Scotland', p. 111, which implies 1827 or 1828) with the Mcleod migration.

Angus Matheson. Born at 'Ross-shire Scotland on the 15 December 1825'. - New Zealand Master's Certificate of service, dated 25 June 1873. That is, when Angus Matheson was 47 years old. He died 29 August 1887 (photo of gravestone) 'aged 63 years', but 15 December 1825 to 29 August 1887 is 61 years 8 months.

His brother Duncan's date of birth also casts doubt on Angus's, for there's only a few months between the dates of birth of Duncan and Angus.

In the history of the Hong Kong, the author refers to:
M Keswick, ed., The Thistle and the Jade: 150 years of Jardine Matheson, London, 1982, in which there is apparently an extensive note on the origins of this Matheson (either James or Alexander, I'm not sure).

2729 The head and centre of nonconformity in Leicester was the congregation of the Great Meeting, the chapel in East BondStreet which Presbyterians and Independents had combined to build in 1708. It had been Presbyterian during the greaerpart of the century, and was still occasionally referred to as such by members of other denominations -- presumably fromforce of habit -- as late as 1802. But towards the end of the long ministry (1741 - 97) of the Rev Huigh Worthington itcame, like other Presbyterian congregations elsewhere, under the latitudinarian influence of Dr Joseph Priestley.

- Patterson, and he gives a reference to: Thomas and Paget, History of the Great Meeting, Leicester.

2731 The house on lot 24 (117 Leigh Rd) was built for Rosa in 1929. She probably lived there until about the time of her mother's death.

Moved back to Leigh after 1963.
