Could be, Elizabeth.

Ooh, there is an Alice Holden baptised 29 Feb 1784 at St James, Darwen, daughter of Edward and Izabel, abode Over Darwen. The parents' names fit nicely with the names of Roger and Alice's children, as the first two were named after Roger's parents and then the next two are Isabel and Edmund. The only trouble is there is a big gap between those two so there could be a few more boys who I haven't found! But I will pencil this baptism in and hope to find something to prove it.

Hmm, baptism for Lucinda Fish, 26 Sep 1830 St James, Church Kirk, Lancashire, illegitimate daughter of Sarah Fish, single woman, abode Cross (from Lancs OPC.) Sarah must be Sarah Whitaker who married Peter Fish 6 Mar 1828 at St James, Church Kirk, and there is the burial of a Peter Fish, age 20, son of Peter Fish, abode Cross, 7 Jul 1828 St James, Accrington. It seems a bit funny to describe Sarah as a single woman rather than widow, and Peter as the son of someone when he was a married man, but I guess these must be them.

Thomas is at Cross on the 1841 census:
Thomas Duxbury 35 Inn Keeper Y
Sarah Do 40 Y
Lucinday Do 10 Y

But I haven't found Alice in 1841 yet. Can anyone spot her, please?

I don't think this is the right Sarah now, as I think this is the right family in 1851:
Turton, Lancs
John Holden Head Mar 35 Agr Lab Entwistle Lancs
Susanna Do Wife Mar 34 Darwen Do
Edward Do Son U 12 Hand Loom Weaver Entwistle Do
Mary Do Daur 7 Scholar Adlington Do
Alice Do Do 4 Do Do Do
Sarah Jane Do Do 2 At Home Do Do

In 1861 Susanna and Sarah are away, which fits with them being with Thomas Duxbury:
Higher Crow Trees, Entwistle, Lancs
John Holden Head Mar 46 Platelayer & Farmer of 9 Acres Lancs Entwistle
Edward " Son Un 22 Clerk at Railway Station " "
Mary " Daur Un 17 House Maid " Adlington
Alice " Daur Un 14 " " "
Thomas " Son 7 Scholar " Turton
John " Son 3 " Entwistle.

I've found the children's baptisms on Lancs OPC and Edward is down as Neddy, son of Susanah Duxbury.

Those marriages are both on Lancs OPC, Elizabeth, and Isabella Duxbury's father is down as James Duxbury, labourer, while Isabella Jackson is 24, a spinster, father William Jackson, farmer.

Back to the drawing board, Kate.

I do find Lancashire folk confusing. All mine and OH's seem to have surnames that half the village had and distinguishing them gives me a headache.

You would think that Christopher Hindle would be a nice, easy name to research - Wrong!
