there was two burials one 1771 and one 1772 same parents .

What about this one?

Lalastica Hill Christening (Baptism) 17 Jan 1773 Newton-Le-Willows, St Peter Wm, Mary

I've looked at the image and it looks like Lalaslical, but there are probably several interpretations! (I keep thinking of Elastigirl!)

I looked at a list of biblical names starting with L, looking for something obscure, but it didn't help!

(I still can't see the 1772 burial but it's irrelevant to this anyway)

Hm. On the other hand, was the name assumed to be an attempt at Lizzie, lol.

Lalastica doesn't sound a million miles from Leicester to me!

perhaps that's her real name but for short lassey lol . what a very strange name . but you never know it may be our girl .

[Qwackers]

the date of birth would fit with the death . of lassey hill .

[Merry]

It would. Did you look for children born earlier than the few you listed up-thread?

[Qwackers]

I will check for them . There is a 6th century name scholastica ,

Merry, having seen some of the other daft names in Lancashire, nothing would surprise me!
