Hello Joyce, how have you connected to him, what else do you know about him, and what specifically are you hoping to find?

What research have you already done?

Joyce, Are you sure the 1841 census states he came from Bamber Bridge? the 1841 never gave birth place,

It only gave a Y for Yes and a N for No to the question whether born in same county

Roy
