    Tim, when I saw your screenshot : "James Tomlinson" of Freckleton,Lancs. At a glance, I read it as "James Titterington". This is probably because I have Titterington ancestors from Newton with Scales,Lancs. and Freckleton has cropped up as a place name in my searches.

    Also the name Tomlinson seems familiar; must have a look, they may well have crossed paths:)

    No Titterington at the back - this is supposed to be a serious discussion.

    There was a girl at school in Darwen Lancashire named Anne Titterington and I think she came from somewhere near Bolton. Thought you might like to know that !!o_O

    I think it was the familiar look of the 'ancestors profile' (Ancestry), although dislexia could be the answer? I misread a first aid tip today as: 'cover the bum with cling film', not a lot use for a burn unless that is the affected area;)

    I have a direct connection between Tomlinson and Titterington my mother's side of the family.
    My 2xGreat Aunt Ann Tomlinson (1839-1929) married John Babb (1832-1880).
    Their daughter Elizabeth Ann Babb (1862-1931), married Francis James Chapman (1860-1932).
    Their daughter Florence Chapman (1884-1968) married Edward Gilman Titterington (1878-1961).
    Perhaps you are also physic Peter?
