Tomkinsons in Witton and Davenham Parish Registers

I have recently completed a review of the Witton and Davenham Parish Registers from the mid 1700s up through about 1855 in search of my wife's Tomkinson ancestors. I made a pulloff of all the Tomkinsons that were recorded and then made ancestral charts from the names that I came up with, almost 100 in number. I will be happy to review the names that I have for anyone interested and tell you what I have on them.

It is almost all from Witton Parish, with a small number from Davenham. All surnames are Tomkinson unless otherwise shown.
