Nathan Needham b.1796 Wigan area lancs: marriage to Ann ? birth details?

Question

Researching the Needham family of Lancashire, Wigan, Lee, Salford areas. Pretty confident of data back to Sylvester Needham, 1837 Born Aspull lancs.  Siblings of Sylvester - Isabella, Elizabeth, Mary, Richard.   Looking for confirmation of Parents:   Father Nathan and Mother Ann's marriage in Wigan/Leigh.  Plus Nathan's birth info and of course his parents.

Perfect thanks; I'll look into it.     Not sure how you are connected to Nathan. My father was Thomas, GrandFather Fred, GGF Joseph, GGGF Sylvester (and I have a great photo of his headstone if you are interested), GGGGF Nathan.

I looked up the information that you provided at   familysearch.org   a free site, to find an answer to your question. Although I am not aware of anyone with the Needham surname in my ancestry, the majority of my ancestors trace back to England.
