  My thanks to Amanda Sharpe (née Brotherton but no relation) for much of the information
on this page which comes from the research she has done into her own line of the Brothertons.
The dates before 1830  taken from the church records are Baptism not Birth although
these are probably within a month of each other.
She is at pains to point out that while the baptism record shows the parents of each child
when it comes to a marriage only the names are shown.
 Thus one has to assume the connection between, say Robert and Ann Foulds, is correct
because Robert son of Thomas and Isabel is the only Robert Brotherton of the right age
she has found in the records of the area.
