It does all look to be the right family, apart from the blacksmith/farmer switch, however I'll keep looking for a reason why William might have swapped his occupation.

Thank you all so much for your assistance, and it helps to all be in agreement too!

So do I.

i agree

Yes everything seems to fit as to William and Jane being Elizabeth's parents apart from William being a blacksmith in 1841. Still think they're the correct family though.

I suspect that the entries for Will Jackson blacksmith are not my family, as why would he change to being a farmer. I could see that a blacksmith might change to being a chaise driver though.

Gosh, you three, you've been busy! Thank you so much for your efforts, it'll take me a while to absorb all this.

That family looks good, Alviegal.

Elizabeth's birthplace stated as Rusland in 1851 which you posted, 1871 posted by me, 1881 posted by Maddie, and in 1911 and 1921.

Hawkshead in 1891 and Colton in 1901 (both in Ulverston RD).

Rusland is just beside Colton (approx 3 miles). Hawkshead is about 6 miles from Rusland
