Hi Darksecretz,
Thanks for that, will go check it out now.
I have got all Susannahs records going forwards, its puzzling as the 1841 ages would make Joe and Nancy very young when they got married lol

Hi Janet,

according to the 1841 census Joseph would've been born around 1786 so add 21 and you get 1807, so not entirely impossible for him to have more children, dont forget either that the ages on the 1841 were 'rounded' down too. I see also from the 1841 that Joseph wasnt born in county (cheshire) but Nancy was, Nancy can also be a pet name for ANN. I would think that they married in the brides parish, though I havent found anything yet. :smilee:

Thanks again for your continued help.
Will keep searching, hopefully will find the marriage - bet its when I am looking for something else lol
