G,G,G,G Grandfather born about 1776. No birth or Baptism details. Married Sally Snailham at St Johns,Preston in 1800. No mention of parents for either event. I can find Joseph Stocks born about that date in Yorkshire. |

1841 census does say that he was born in Lancashire, though that is not to say that this is true but there are a few born around the same time in Yorkshire.. |

Don't forget he could be up to 4 years older than the 1841 census states, though since he was still fathering children in 1823, the given age is probably more or less accurate! |

Lancashirebmd gives death ages, so I think this could be his death: |

Sarah/Sally is a widow in 1851, which doesn't help identify where Joseph was born - I guess the death posted was correct: |

Thanks again to everybody. It is Joseph"s birth and baptism details that I cannot locate. The couple in Yorkshire could be the answer but I cannot verify. |

Well his death would indicate the same yob as given on the census, but as he didn't make it to the 1851 census it would be difficult to know where he was born, so I'm not sure what you can do to verify this. |
