Alice Marsden was a daughter of
William Marsden (b. 1717) and Margaret Southern (b. 1722). Alice was baptised on
29/4/1759 at St Helen's, died 3/6/1831 in Winster and was buried on

Millicent Potter was a daughter of
Thomas Potter and Mary Blackwell, baptised on 17/10/1790 and married
16/9/1811, both at St Helen's.
Jethro Shaw (b. 1803) died before the
census on 30/3/1851 (and perhaps even before the census of 1841). He married Elizabeth Bradley (b. 1803 in Winster) in
Winster on 4/4/1825 and they had several children including George
(b. 1830), Mary Ann (b. 1833), John (b. 1837) and Alice (b. 1840).
All were born in Wensley or nearby Cross Green. Jethro was living in Cross Green
when he got married in 1825.
There were two children called
Jethro. It was not uncommon to reuse a name after a child died
young.
