Hi Folks,
I have a Rev. Richard CHEW marrying into my Gt Gt grandmother's WATERS family. He was from Lower End, Ramsbottom, Lancashire and born around 1827. From the 1841 his parents look like Richard and Alice.
Rev Richard married Eleanor Jane Waters, and later became President chair of the United Methodist Free Church. Eleanor's younger sister Phoebe Thompson WATERS married the Rev. Arthur HANDS, who succeeded Richard in the President's role.
I would like to hear from anyone with any further information on the family.
Kind regards
Mike
