Agertsch,

I don't understand. I have followed William and (presumably) his second wife Jane Alice Lonsdale through the censuses. He died in Lowton in 1909 and Jane Alice in 1918.

Name: William Lloyd
Birth Year: abt 1844
Death Age: 65
Burial Date: 25 May 1909
Burial Parish: Lowton, St Luke, Lancashire, England
Parish as it Appears: Lowton



Name: Jane Alice Lloyd
Birth Year: abt 1855
Death Age: 63
Burial Date: 25 Apr 1918
Burial Parish: Lowton, St Luke, Lancashire, England
Parish as it Appears: Lowton

At least they are the ones who have a daughter called Ann, who was born in Chile.

Of course, I have seen no scan of the marriage to verify whether William's father was Peter. I could only find the baptism of one of the children on lan-opc:

Baptism: 19 Aug 1874 All Saints, Hindley, Lancashire, England
Elizabeth Jane Lloyd - [Child] of William Lloyd & Jane Alice
Born: 9 Aug 1874
Abode: Bridgewater Street
Occupation: Fireman
Baptised by: Edwin Lovegrove, Curate
Register: Baptisms 1873 - 1876, Page 28, Entry 217

Fireman has to do with the mines, I think.

Jane Alice seems to have been christened in a CofE church:

Baptism: 29 Jun 1856 All Saints, Hindley, Lancs.
Jane Alice Lonsdale - [Child] of Thomas Houghton Lonsdale & Jane Isabella
Born: 10 Oct 1855
Abode: Hindley
Occupation: Book keeper
Baptised by: P.Jones Incumbent
Register: Baptisms 1840 - 1858, Page 565, Entry 4516

PS Have since been browsing ancestry. There is a (rather unclear) photograph of Elizabeth Jane Lloyd on the Bentham family tree on there, which you might like to look at. Also Jane Alice Lonsdale's father was interesting. At his death in 1866 he left 1.500 pounds - a fortune in those days - and he died in what they called a "lunatic asylum" in June that year. That's not very politically correct, I know, but that's how they were referred to.

I just wish we knew for sure that this William was Peter's son.I know everything points to him being it,but still.
