In 1851 William Bispin/Bispham was a cotton spinner......... this could be your Johns family, the marriage cert is what you need next to hopefully confirm William as Johns father!!!

Hi Debbie.

I can't see anything to find his parents or siblings. I did find this though;

I see his occupation is a labourer 10 years later, could this be him in 1861?

I think you would need the marriage cert, hopefully it will give his fathers name and hopefully the witnesses maybe Bisphams .

Hi
I've managed to trace the Bisphams as far back as my 2nd G.Grandfather, John, but have not been able to find anything further back. John was born in Ulverston, Cumbria, probably around 1824. He married Agnes Cleminson in 1844. He had 5 children, all born in Ulverston.
William Bispham, b.3.12.1846
George Cleminson Bispham, b.1849
Ann Bispham, b.1856
Stephen Bispham, b.3.10.1858
John Bispham, b.1861

If anybody can help me go back any further, please get in touch. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Debbie
