Thanks for your findings Farside
Initially, I found him in 1861, but thought it must be the wrong one cos he was not a Miner Fair enough, he's a colliery engine driver in later census.....

all the above now added to Connections ........here

I'm bothered by the fact that the father of John is on his marriage cert in 1856 but isn't even alive in 1841 - wouldn't it have said deceased?

Just flagging this to see if we can archive it Mally
I would have thought that father would be down as deceased but have found that marr records miss info off!

So up to you if you need any more info say
or we can archive
So unless blah blah etc etc
