Yeah I had and flagged that previously!
but on Lilys marriage he is Joseph woodward and on the marriage(to Maria) no William and on the rates no william and on the census no William.
and that occup of gas producer is not a rivet maker!
I bet it is a made up name! or it is her mothers fathers name....or as you say it is just an error
I looked for a bapt too at St Pauls but nought!

All that looked very very good and has gone on the tree here......
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =547566766I will do the look up for Maria Ruston and Joseph Woodward and I am sure it will have father Joseph Ruston....heres hoping.
and for him possibly a Joseph but not too sure yet as that Ann below is old to have those kids as Jimmy says
But I have added notes.
So we now have a Joseph Woodward as the father too! b 1818.
Can we link him into the other Rustons and find a marriage for this one and him on the previous census?

Could this be Joseph Woodward in 1881.
Ann WOODWARD. Head. W. 70. Rowley Regis, Stafford,
Maria WOODWARD. Daur. U. 30. Rowley Regis, Stafford, Nail Maker
Thomas WOODWARD. Son. U. 16. Rowley Regis, Stafford, Coal Miner
Eliza WOODWARD. Daur. 13 Rowley Regis, Stafford, England Scholar
Joseph WOODWARD. Son. 9. Rowley Regis, Stafford, Scholar
George WOODWARD. Son. 2. Rowley Regis, Stafford,
19 Beet Street, Rowley Regis, Stafford,
I think Ann age 70 may be a bit old to mother to some of these.
