It is uncertain if the first is Henry Bridge of Rufford, or whether Henry Bridge Rufford is his full name. Rufford is a village in West Lancashire. Hindley Green was a village in Lancashire – now it is within the Borough of Wigan. The cataloguers can find no reference to Barracks in Didcot [Ditcut] in the 18th century; last perhaps Chapeltown, South Yorkshire, now a part of Sheffield.
