I am working backwards. Trying to find Joseph's birth and any other info. I have him on the census' for 1881,1891,1901. But can't find him or any children in 1871. He was married to Ann Jane Blake (later known as Jane) and in 1881 had the following children: |

Further to the above, Joseph and Jane were married in Blackburn June 1868. |

Thanks Penny, I have no idea what his father's name was. Will have to look into buying his marriage cert. |

Hi Susan, It could very well be him. The age and spouse are right, as are the children, with the exception of Mary, however given how people changed first and second names all the time back then, I think you have found him. |

Thank you very much Susan. I am pretty sure this is him. His occupation for much of his early years was cotton weaver. I had estimated his death to be around 1913, so will follow that up too. You have been such a great help. :) |

These look like the baptisms for some of their children: |

Looks like Jane died and Joseph remarried, if this is him on 1911 Census: |

Thank you very much Dea. Yes Jane died and Joseph remarried within the year if my research is correct. Thanks also for the babtism info. I did have George's so it shouldn't be too hard to match up the rest of the dates with the family I have so far. |

I have looked at the 1881 image and I would say that your Marget is really 'Mary J' i.e. Mary Jane.. |

I agree with you there Dea, I just had another look at my copy and I think she is Mary Jane. No wonder I haven't been able to find references for Margaret! It's interesting that in the list of Baptisms Rebecca isn't there. She was 4yrs old in 1881 so should have come between George and Walter. This swapping of first and second names (and sometimes nicknames) does my head in sometimes! :) |

Thanks to all for the help you have given so far. I am off to sort dinner for the family, will check back later. My father passed away just last month, and I only have his sister left from that generation. All my grandparents are gone as are most of my aunts and uncles, so I don't have the option of talking to any of them. |
