1851 = born Bury
1861 = born Tottington
1871 = born Tottington

Censuses give place of birth as Bury or Tottington Lower End but this could also include Holcombe.

John son of Edward & Peggy Pilkington born: 24 July 1799, baptised: 01 September 1799 Tottington St Annes - too early?
Owing to the names of his children, his parents are likely to be an Edward or James and a Nancy

In 1851 census a visitor was Mary Wild, born in Quarlton.
Was she a friend of Betty or possibly Betty's mother who could have re-married.
