Lancs OPC question.
 

I am wondering how I work out which person is the right one here...

I know for a fact Agatha Sawrey is ours. Baptised 18th March 1746 Hawkshead, daughter of Anthony.

Now...Anthony could possibly be the son of William Sawrey, a weaver from Hill. This Anthony was baptised 1722.

OR
Anthony Sawrey baptized 1720. His father was Henry Sawrey, a shoemaker from Dixon Ground.

OR
Anthony Sawrey baptized 1697, son of Myles from Coniston Water.

I also have the will of Agatha's husband, David Kirkby, where he owns Coniston Water, Dixon Ground and Hill Head.

Any ideas if there is anywhere else I can look to sort them?

Do you have your Anthony's marriage, and does it specify his abode?

I know you have loads of Myles's later on, so could this Myles Sawrey be the reason for that, or do you have the name on another line going back?

I don't think Myles was a particularly uncommon name in Lancs at the time, though.

It might be worth asking the Lancs Record Office if there are any settlement or removal orders for the family.

Cannot find any marriage for Anthony.

Myles is a family name, but then every Lancs family of that era had at least one Myles.

Agatha's family's abode is given as Waterhead in 1746, which appears to be between Coniston village and Coniston Water (the lake) - at least there's a Waterhead hotel there now, so it may not be the same place.

Dixon Ground's the opposite side of Coniston village from Waterhead:

Does Agatha's husband own Coniston Water in its entirety? That's a sizeable drop of water. I would imagine her father would be equally wealthy.

Agatha married David Kirkby. He was seriously wealthy. Not sure about the Sawrey lot. There are lots of wills around but I am not sure which ones to buy.
