Hi Lisa,

Don't feel SO deflated !!!

I am 'on the case' and I am sure many others will be - we will get there in the end !!!

I think the two witnesses were just friends and probably not related (they did marry each other a year or two later)

Am following them around for a while and looking for dad 'John'

Have to go out for a while this morning but will be back onto it later.

Thanks Lancashireann,

Yes, that's why I thought I had got him!!!

born ASHTON-U-LYNE, around the correct time - father John (a tinner from marriage cert), working in a foundry. - All sounded so good but I don't think it is the right one !!

Needs more work.........
