I am new to this particular list.My ancestor is James Hollingsworth,b.ca.1802
Mottram in Longdendale England;He married an Anna Taylor in 1822 and likely
died in Pennsylvania 1853.

"____ Hollingsworth was Born in Lancashire, 7 miles from Manchester, England.
He died in 1853, in his 51st year. He came from England to Philadelphia,
Pa.(Year not stated in publication,but likely in 1843 based on other family
history).
