Administrative / biographical background

There is some slight evidence that the Crosse family originated in Lathom, but Adam of the Cross appears in Wigan in 1277. In the next century properties were acquired in Wigan and Liverpool and shortly after 1400 in Chorley. In the middle of the 18th century Shaw Hill was built in Whittle-le-Woods
