I have traced my ancestors back to 1682 but have run up against a brick wall. I am trying to find the parents of James Watson l. He was born in Horton Yorkshire (IGI records say Barton, not true) in 1682. He married Isabel Thornber on Oct 21, 1707. Her parents were Robert Thornber and Maria Peele. James and Isabel were married in Gisburn Yorkshire. Can anyone help. Thanks |

I also found this record but I do not believe it is the James I am looking for. First I believe the location is not where my James came from and I cannot find any record of the above James being married to Isabel Thornber. I also know that James and Isabel had a son James in 1708 and I have verified this family using Parish Records housed in the Clitheroe library. |

How do you know where he was born? |

I found him on IGI but it says he was born in Barton but it is actually Horton. Horton is a village just outside Gisburn. I visited the area this year and met with friends who live in that area. I guess it is easy to get things like this mixed up when they are from transcribed records. Sorry I did not reply earlier but I live in Canada and we are 5 hours behind the UK |
