Dear Chris,
As far as I can tell so far (although I'm having trouble as I'm researching Cotmanhay Henshaws and it's a bit of a nightmare) my greatx3 grandfather John Henshaw married a Ruth Severn, who came either from Greasley or Watnall. I only have this information on the sayso of the LDS website, I've yet to check it in any way. However, there are a long line of Ruth's in this branch of my family tree, leading down to my grandmother. Ruth and John Henshaw married in 1832, and lived in Cotmanhay. I'm a local, so if you're a long way away I'd be glad to help with anything that's difficult to do long-distance.
