Thank you for your reply. Rylands have no records on the 'Denfield' Masseys,of Rosthenre, who are from Audlem Moss Hall, rather than Dunham Massey Hall.

Pershall Massey is the youngest son of Richard Massey,bap 1703 at Rostherne.

Richard was not yet born at the time of the drawing of the will for his father George Massey of Denfield. 1665. Richard being the 5th son ( 9th child). No further wills found. Apprentice records for Cheshire are very few at this period.
