1851 census
Castleton Moor, Castleton, Lancashire
William Butterworth, head, 39, ag lab, born Rochdale
Hannah, wife, 42, born Yorks, Rushwick
Elizabeth, dau, 20, reeler cotton, born Rushwick
Nancy, dau, 15, throstle spinner
Ann, dau, 11, scholar
William, son, 9, scholar
Joseph, son, 3
*Samuel, son, 4 months.
I believe all other children were born Rochdale.

51 census was taken 30 March so presume Samuel was born Dec. 1850.

On IGI a William Butterworth married a Hannah Greenwood but it was in Halifax, Yorkshire and it was 1825. Too early, don't you think?

Well, I can't find a William/Hannah marriage that fits nor a birth for William and since we don't know Hannah's name I can't find her. I found christenings of most of the children but not those earlier 2, Elizabeth & Nancy.
Goodness! there's a lot of Butterworths in Rochdale!
