presumably a descendant of Samuel Lees junior [who] founded Park Bridge [in Ashton-under-Lyne] ironworks in 1786 <br />Early in 1847 the following leading men of the town gathered under the leadership of Jonathan Andrew, the people's mayor, to announce a public meeting to be held on February 23rd 1847 to discuss petitioning the Queen to apply for Borough Status for Ashton-under-Lyne. The meeting was held in the new Town Hall, where the proposal was accepted and the petition drawn up and despatched. It was then published in the 'London Gazette' and went before the Privy Council on May 31st, who put it to Queen Victoria with advice that it should be granted on September 29th 1847 [list includes Samuel Lees]<br /><br />
