Hi,
Thank you for all your suggestions so far.
I am hoping that these may be right but the christening worries me as they were Wesleyan Methodists do they get christened? Sorry for my ignorance. Also, this family seem to be the Gornal Wood ones and I am pretty sure they are not the right ones, see below.
So I could check this further what is an extracted birth on IGI?
In 1841 James was 36 so I am pretty sure that the Gornal Wood one is a different person.
The 1841 Gornal Wood & 1851 Kettles Bank seem spot on thank you.
Best wishes,
Caroline
