    Notes:

    Birth:
    Pits o' th' Moor" is a now almost-forgotten name for an area of land lying
    between Winton and Patricroft. The latter two places are now districts
    within the town of Eccles, but back in 1842, they were two separate hamlets
    which lay within the Registration Sub-District of Barton-upon-Irwell. The
    area in question was part of a triangle of land bounded by the roads known
    to-day as Worsley Road, New Lane and Liverpool Road. By the end of the 19th
    century, this area was fully developed with terraced housing and two or
    three small factories, but in 1842 it was still mostly open farmland. The
    first 1848 Ordnance Survey map of the area clearly shows it as labelled
    "Pits o' th' Moor". The "pits" in question were almost certainly old marl
    pits, which had filled with water, and are shown on the map as ponds.
