James Timperley and his wife Annie (Goostrey). In 1911 they were living in Ivy House, Moss Lane. They were the parents of Maud who married Smith Plant.

James's Great-Grandparents Samuel and Elizabeth were born in Wilmslow but moved to Mobberley where their children were born. By 1851 they were back in Fulshaw/Wilmslow. Their son Joshua married in 1850 and after he was widowed he returned to Mobberley where in 1881 he was living with his sons, also Joshua, born in 1855 and James William born in 1863. It was James William who married Annie Goostrey and they had (at least) four children, all daughters: Alice, Olive, Maud and Muriel Alice. Maud married Smith Plant and one of their daughters (Nora Glenn) still lives in Mobberley.
