Notes - MOSES YOXALL
Moses was buried at Church Minshull rather than Middlewich or Church Hulme (Holmes Chapel) both of which would have been nearer to Sproston. Does this imply he was originally from, or near, Church Minshull or Minshull Vernon?
Whilst Moses was possibly born in Cheshire his parents may have come from Headless Cross, Worcestershire - a village in Ipsley parish, Warwick, and Feckenham parish, Worcester, and a chapelry partly also in Tardebigg parish, Worcester. The village stands on the boundary between Warwick and Worcester, 2 miles W of Ipsley, and 5? SE of Bromsgrove railway station.
Moses possibly had a brother Peter born circa 1753 who married Ann Lea but this was Chester.
Possibilities for Moses's father:
Moses - born approx 1730
Peter - born approx 1710
Abraham Yoxall married Mary Cowper 17 February 1734 in Nantwich
Abraham Yoxall married Jane Harding 08 March 1724 in Church Minshull
Abraham Yoxshall married Mary Bevington 07 January 1751 in Cheshire
Benjamin Yoxall married, by Publication, Jonahana Leaw 01 January 1739 in Middlewich
Peter Yaxall married Jane Kennerley 30 May 1731 in Middlewich
Richard Yaxall married Elizabeth Burroughs 16 July 1751 in Cheshire
Robert Yoxall married Mary Street 14 May 1750 in Cheshire
Robert Yoxall, blacksmith married Esther Ridyard, spinster at St Michaels 06 December 1747 (possibly Chester so unlikely)
Thomas Yoxall married Mary Cooke 15 May 1727 in Davenham
Church Minshull - Between 1736 & 1752 Abraham Yoxall has 5 daughters named Mary
A Peter Yoxall was baptised in 1740 in Middlewich - his father was Peter
Moses could sign his name when he married
Moses & Elizabeth Married by Licence as Elizabeth was under 21 with agreement from her father
Possibly had another daughter Johannah who married John Buckley 04 October 1801 in Middlewich
