This looks like your lot in 1861: The men were coal miners, and Judith was a cotton weaver James Adcroft abt 1849 Over Darwen, Lancashire, England Son Over Darwen Lancashire Judith Adcroft abt 1844 Over Darwen, Lancashire, England Daughter Over Darwen Lancashire Nelson Adcroft abt 1815 Over Darwen, Lancashire, England Head Over Darwen Lancashire Nelson Adcroft abt 1839 Over Darwen, Lancashire, England Son Over Darwen Lancashire Nelson Adcroft abt 1848 Over Darwen, Lancashire, England Grandson Over Darwen Lancashire William Adcroft abt 1846 Over Darwen, Lancashire, England Son Over Darwen Lancashire Seems like Nelson was a family name - after the hero, perhaps?
