[1] WD Hesketh coal lorries were a common sight in Partington, N Cheshire, UK. The family is believed to have been centred around that area of N Cheshire. [2] Known to the family as Mary Lizzie [3] Twins [4] Thomas Hesketh kept the George III pub in Manchester. It was knocked down to make way for Central Station which was in turn knocked down to make way for the GMex Centre. I (PBH b 1943) have two of the roughly engraved glasses from the George III.
