The burial is recorded in the parish register.

Relationships

Father: John Dixon.

This relationship is made clear by the will of Ellen’s brother John.

Mother: Isabel Shippobothome.

Isabels’s name is given in her marriage record.

Spouse: Thomas Heap. Married 11 November 1679 in Middleton, Lancashire.

The marriage is recorded in the parish register, but it is very hard to read. My reading is from Lancashire Online Parish Clerks, which gives her name as Elmes Dixson with a “sic” after Elmes.
