England

Liverpool
A major seaport city in the County of Lancashire, England.

Walton on the Hill
This is a church and parish in what is today at the northern edge of the city of Liverpool, in Lancashire. Has an ancient Norman church. The vicarage of Walton was founded in 1326. The oldest register from the parish still in existence dates from 1587. In 1699 Liverpool was made a parish separate from Walton. The parish of Walton is in the deanry of Warrington, and a township united with Fazackerley. The parish contains, beside the parish church (which is 3 miles N. of Liverpool) five chapels of ease. Although the living is a rectory, the church is a vicarage, the patrons of which are the lay impropriators of the rectory. Several ancient Henshawe birth/marriage records are from Walton on the Hill.

Toxteth Park
A township near Liverpool, in Lancashire. William Henshawe, son of ("Sir") Thomas Henshawe and progenitor of many/most U.S. Henshaws, inherited estates at Toxteth Park and Wavertree ("Wavertree Hall") from his marriage to Katherine Haughton. Toxteth Park, adjoining on the S. and S.E. of Liverpool, is in the parish of Walton, under which it has a chapel of ease: patron, the rector of Walton. There is also a dissenting chapel in this township.

Wavertree

It has the following chapels under it, viz. St. Hellens, Farnworth, Rainstorth, and Sankey. The parish church, which is situated on high ground, and seen from a great distance, has a spire 156 feet high. Church records from 1580+. The town is famous for the manufactory of watch-maker's tools, and fine files. In the census of 1801, Prescot appears to have had 734 houses, and 3465 inhabitants

A County in mid-western England, just south of Lancashire. Also sometimes spelled simply "Derby". Incorporates the city of Derby.

Derby
There is a city of Derby in the County Derbyshire, but Henshaw history refers to the Derby of Lancashire. Derby, commonly called West Derby, to distinguish it from the county town of Derbyshire, gives name to the hundred in which it is situated, and the title of Earl to the noble family of Stanley. It is in the parish of Walton, under which it has a chapel of ease, called Derby Chapel, 4 miles N.E. of Liverpool; patron, the rector of Walton.

Prestbury
A town and parish in N central Gloucester county, England, 2 mi. E of Cheltenham, N of the city of Gloucester. Also a parish in Chester, with church records from 1560+.

Henshaw/Henshawe
A "place" name (either a tiny village or a family hall), variously reputed to be either:

A description of Henshaw hall of Siddington, which passed into the hands of the Thornycroft family in 1712, can be found in the recorded pedigree "Thornycroft of Thornycroft and Henshaw of Henshaw" by George King, R.D. 1687, ordered to be entered by Henry, Duke of Norfolk, Nov 28, 1687. It describes it as follows: "Henshaw Hall is a stone building which has been modernised. It was surrounded by a square moat, some portions of which are still visible. Over the entrance doorway is a large stone slab bearing the following inscription, in capitals:

THEY HEIRS | OF THIS LAND | WILLIAM HENSHAW | HUGH HENSHAW
| ADAM HENSHAW | HUGH HENSHAW | HUGH HENSHAW | THOMAS HENSHAW
| EDWARD HENSHAW | THOMAS HENSHAW | LEA HENSHAW | AND THOMAS
HENSHAW | WHO DYED THE 9 | DAY OF FEBr ANO | DOMI 1674"

This was the home of the Henshaws of Henshaw - see William Henshaw. Henshaw is also noticed in the Domesday book as Hofinchel, under the same head with Henbury, q.v. pg 351, col 1.

In 1849 Orange county was again divided, the western portion (including the site of the Cane Creek Meeting House) becoming Alamance county.
