A distant relative, James Trickett is buried in Sion Baptist burial ground, a church he was associated with for much of his adult life. His grave is marked by a granite edifice, three sides of which bear inscriptions which leave no doubt as to the family's religious sensibilities:

James was born C 1856 in either Newchurch or Rawtenstall depending on which census you prefer. He married Margaret Lonsdale in the Halsingden reg district in q2 1881, annoyingly just after the census.

In Loving Memory of
FRED LONSDALE TRICKETT OF DALE VIEW, HASLINGDEN ROAD, RAWTENSTALL
WHO DIED OCTOBER 8TH 1907 – AGED 22 YEARS
“YOUR LIFE IS HID WITH CHRIST IN GOD – COL III.3’
ALSO THOMAS HENRY, BELOVED HUSBAND OF MAY TRICKETT
WHO DIED MAY 17TH 1941, AGED 51 YEARS
James and Margaret had three children, despite what they put on the 1911 census (two children, two chlldren living and none dead). Perhaps they meant living at home, as Fred by this time had died. Fred and Thomas Henry are the two commemorated on the gravestone. Their daughter Margaret married Robert Waddington 2q 1915.

I have yet to link these people with the Trickett family.
James worked as an insurance agent and in 1882 he founded the insurance brokers in Rawtenstall which still bears his name and which is still ran by a family member, albeit not a direct descendant;
James was actively involved in Sion, being a member of the Sunday School committee overseeing the development of the building in which the church now meet. He did not appear to lay a foundation stone in the new building, interesting as there are 14 of them.
He is top row right on this picture of the SS committee.
