Summary of Interests/Message
Alice Hartley b1818 married Henry Smith on 16 Dec 1844 at St Bartholomews, Colne. She already had 2 daughters Margaret Hartley b 1839 and Mary Ann b 1841.

Henry & Alice went on to have 4 sons - William 1845, James 1847,
John 1848, Henry 1852.
They lived in Lenches, Great Marsden.
    
Margaret (Alices daughter) had a son whom she named Smith Hartley (13 Jan 1857), presumably named after her step-father.
It is said that Margaret died soon after the birth, I haven't found her burial but she
certainly seems to have disappeared.

2 March 1890, both are buried in the churchyard of Winewall Inghamite church along with Henrys Uncle James Smith who
