The information with this picture says
Painting of The Molyneux family of Hawkley Hall by A. Devis c.1750. (incorrectly titled the Molyneux Family of Sefton) "Sir Richard Molyneux, his wife Jane and his three sons Richard, Bryan William and William; with Hawkley Hall showing in the background."

Does anyone know where this painting is? The boy on the left is the image of my nephew when he was about that age.
My grandad was Thomas H E Molyneux and I have just had a look at this photo and am extremely spooked as the lady in the photo is the image of me!
I am reputed to be descended from this family and would be very interested in any more information on this. Was Jane - Jane Sefton or Jane Wilcox?
