I am trying to find the parents of my GGgrandfather William Pearson born St Lukes (Islington/Shoreditch?) but do not know any exact dates. I understand he was baptised at St Leonards Shoreditch when aged one and married a Maria Castleman.
I have been told of two options:
1841 Census-Wiliam Pearson married to Isabella both age 30, with William age 3 St Georges the Martyr , Southwark.
or
William Pearson baptised St Sepulchre London (this William parents i.e. William 1838 grandparents were William and Mary.
One may be right or both wrong-would appreciate it if anyone could help.
