He was baptised, (as Johnathan or Jonathan), on 10th March 1734 at St James, Stalmine, son of John and Alice Whiteside of Preesall.
Sister's wedding, 1757:
Jonathan acted as witness at the wedding of Hannah, his sister, at St James, Stalmine, on 1st May 1757.
Jonathan's Marriage:
Jonathan Whiteside, husbandman, was married, by license, to Dorothy Robinson (1735 - 1812), spinster, on 14th July 1759, at St James, Stalmine.
Witnesses were Edward Bibby and Benjamin Whiteside (probably Jonathan's younger brother).
The License:
Jonathan had posted a bond on 30th June 1759.
"... that we Jonathan Whiteside of Preesall, Husbandman, and Edward Bibby of Stalmine, Blacksmith,
both in the Chapelry of Stalmine in the parish and county of Lancaster,
are firmly bound ...
... but that the above bounden Jonathan Whiteside and Dorothy Robinson of Stalmine, spinster,
both in the Archdeaconry of Richmond, may lawfully marry together ... in the face of parochial Chapel of Stalmine aforesaid.

within named, aged twenty one years ...
... and also that the usual place of both of their abode hath been for the space of four weeks immediately before the date hereof in the Chapelry of Stalmine within mentioned."
[On two occasions in the document he signed his name as Johnathan Whiteside although the notary used the normal spelling of Jonathan.]
Jonathan and Dorothy's children:
Alice Whiteside (1760 - ),

[Baptised on 16th March 1766, [husband of Grace Ward (1769 to 1810).]
At some point between 1766 and 1768, Jonathan and Dorothy seem to have moved from Stalmine in the north of Fylde to Layton on the west coast, a distance of about 8 miles, where their next chid was born.
Jane Whiteside (1768 - )
[Baptised 28th August 1768 All Hallows, Bispham]
Jonathan's Death:
I have not yet confirmed Jonathan's death.
There are two burials at St Chad, Poulton le Fylde, which could be him:

and
2 Aug 1782, Abode: Bispham
Dorothy's Death:
Dorothy, Jonathan's widow, died, age 77, in 1812 at Layton in the parish of Bispham.
She was buried on 29th December 1812 at St Chad, Poulton-le-Fylde
He was baptised on 16th March 1766 at St James, Stalmine. His father is stated as Jonathan Whiteside and his mother as Dorothy.
John's Marriage:
John Whiteside of Staining was married to Grace Ward of Weeton, on 9th November 1790, at St Michael's, Kirkham.
Witnesses were John Swann and Edward Jolly. [Grace was daughter of Joseph and Ann Ward. Her siblings were Betty (1765 - ) and James (1774 - ).].
[Born on 22nd November 1790, baptised on 10th December 1790, buried on 1st February 1873 at St Chad's, Poulton.] [Husband of Isabella Miller (1793 to 1843).]

John's occupation:
At the baptisms of each of his children, John's occupation is stated as "husbandman", (tenant farmer), of Stayning (sic).
John's Death:
I believe that John died in 1824.
There is a burial record for a John Whiteside of 'Stayning' in the register of St Chad, Poulton le Fylde on June 23rd 1824, aged 58. (I have no proof that this is right John Whiteside, but it has the correct age and he was living in the right place...)
19th December 1790: Jonathan Whiteside, son of John Whiteside of Stayning, Husbandsman, and Grace his wife. Born November 22nd (1789).
1812.
This bastardy petition, heard in Preston on 4th April 1812, may or may not relate to 'our' Jonathan.
However, he seems to have been the only man of this name in the area at this time who could fit the bill.
Whereas complaint hath been made unto us, two of His Majesty's Justices of the Peace and Quorum in and for the said County of Lancaster,
residing next unto the Limits of the Parish Church of Bispham within the Parish of Bispham, in the said county, by the Church-wardens and Overseers of the Poor of the Township of Layton with Warbrick

And whereas the said Jonathan Whiteside hath been duly summoned to appear before us the said Justices to the end that upon the Examination of the Cause and Circumstances of the Premises,

for and towards the charges and Expenses incident to the birth of the said Bastard Child, and the maintenance of the said Bastard Child from the time of her birth, to the time of our making of this order,
and further sum of four shillings for and towards the cost of apprehending and securing the said Jonathan Whiteside, and the sum of thirteen shillings

And we do likewise hereby further Order that the said Jonathan Whiteside shall well and truly pay or cause to be paid unto the Church-wardens and Overseers of the Poor of the said township of Layton with Warbrick, or
to some one of them, for the time being, the Sum of two shillings weekly and every Week from this present Time, for and towards the Keeping, Sustenance and Maintenance of the said Bastard Child,

some one of them for the time being, the Sum of two shillings weekly and every Week from henceforth so long as the said Bastard Child shall be chargeable to the said Township of Layton with Warbrick, in case she shall not nurse or take care iof the said Child herself.
Given under our Hands and Seals at Preston in the County of Lancaster, this fourth Day of April in the 52nd Year of the Reign of our

John Wild Crossley (1864-1931) a yorkshireman, born in Huddesfield, had previously married Alice Lodge (1864-1913) on 4th September 1888 at Upperthong, Yorkshire. She was the daughter of Batley Lodge (1834-1905) and Sarah Eastwood.
John was widowed in 1913 and moved to Garston where, presumably, he came across the recently widowed Alice Whiteside. As a shuttlemaker, he would have been drawn by the thriving Wilson Brothers Bobbin Co.Graces Guide to British Industrial History. Opens in a new tab or window.
Between 1920 and 1930, Alice and John Crossley are found in the electoral register for 39 Brunswick Street, Garston.
