• Notes

  There is no particular certainty about what happens to Lucy, but a marriage between Lucy TAYLOR, widow, father Edward REDDISH, and William SWINDELLS on 23/6/1844 at St. Peter, Prestbury is significant, coupled with the 1841 Census that shows she is a widow, living in the same house as William Swindells; and the marriage to William Taylor on 13/4/1812 at St. Peter, Prestbury - all suggests that this was her life story. There are some issues as Lucy offers a range of birth dates when giving her age, and there is no obvious death information for either husband, though there are definite possibilities. I cannot find her in 1861 Census, hence the probable death in 1854.
