Hi Trevor,
?
Picked up a little more information last week about Jane Furness and John Mathews. John Mathew was buried in the Furness family plot in the Springs Cemetery in Stafford, so I got a copy of his death certificate and went through the archives at the town hall. John died 16th. June 1897 in Stafford Springs, Connecticut. He was living with his in-laws, the Furness family. Born in England to Samuel Mathews and Elizabeth Schofield. Cause of death was Addison's disease and chronic endocarditis, which he suffered from for 1 1/2 years. He was a mill hand in the Warren Woollen Mills in Stafford Springs, Connecticut.
John Mathew was married to Jane "Jenny" Furness on 17th. November 1888 by Rev. F. D. Buckley, the rector at the Grace Episcopal Church in Stafford Springs.
On 8th. December 1895, their son, Stephen J. Mathews was born at their home on Furnace Avenue, Stafford Springs, delivered by Dr. C. H. David.
I will be trying to find the place of death of Jane when I have time. It was written in the family Bible that she died in Monson, Massachusetts, so I'll have to go there.
Robert Welsh, her second husband, must have had his six children before he met Jane.

Having checked the UK BMD records for the July/Sep quarter of 1895 - I cannot locate any deaths of a MELLOR child being registered in Saddleworth, However! there are four MELLOR children who's death were registered in Ashton-under-Lyne,(Tameside)-One of which could well be the child of William Henry and Esther (Lawton) Mellor. (Need to verify)

- 1871 Census - Aged 50 (Cotton Reeler) @ Quickedge Lane, Sandbed, Brookbottom, Saddleworth.- NOTES: - Both Mary and Jane Moss were the daughters of Joseph Moss (Carter) and Sarah (Rowley) Moss of Midge Hill, Quick, Saddleworth.
- Mary Moss married Joseph Shuttleworth on 31st March 1839 at St. Michaels Church, Mottram - Just two months later Mary (Moss) Shuttleworth was widowed when Joesph Shuttleworth dird on the 2nd June 1839 and left his now pregnant widow to bear his child Hannah Moss Shuttleworth just nine months later in Jan_Mar 1840 - Mary (Moss) Shuttleworth was to survive her husband by only three further years, and she herself died a Widow aged only 25 years, at Midge Hill, Haddens, Quick, on the 9th September 1843, leaving her daughter Hannah an orphan.
- Mary's younger sister Jane Moss then married Samuel Lawton at Manchester Cathedral on 28th July 1844, and the couple were to act as foster parents to their Niece and Orphan Hannah Moss Shuttleworth,
- I suspect this is why some IGI records make the assumption that Samuel Lawton married 'Jane Shuttleworth' which is quite incorrect.
