  • 38.1.1 - Samuel Wright Mousley (1805-1841)
    • According to another researcher, he lived his whole life in Chilcote
  • 38.1.2 - Mary Ann Mousley (1806-1892)
  • 38.1.3 - Thomas Mousley (1808-1860)

    • George was a surgeon, who practised in Long St, Atherstone, where his children were born. Atherstone is a small market town: my photos are here.

      • George William Mousley (1844)
  • 38.1.5 - Elizabeth Mousley (1822-1893)
    • Recorded in Rusholme in 1861, before it was incorporated into Manchester. A hundred years later Morrisey wrote Rusholme Ruffians about going to a fair and being stabbed. According to Wikipedia, shooting incidents have declined in recent years.
    • Eliza was a school mistress and music teacher. I don't know what she would have made of The Smiths.
