MY GREAT GRANDFATHER WILLIAM WOODAll WAS BORN 14 APRIL 1838 AT NETHERTON. FATHER EITHER JOHN OR JOSEPH OR PERHAPS JOHN JOSEPH WOODALL, MOTHER MARY ?. WILLIAM MARRIED HANNAH SIMS/SIMMS ON 26 DEC 1859 AT ST EDMUNDS CHURCH, DUDLEY. LATER MOVED TO USA WITH HIS FAMILY AFTER LIVING AT BARROW-IN-FURNESS FOR SOME TIME. STILL TRYING TO FIND WILLIAM'S PARENTS AND ANY BROTHERS OR SISTERS.

Ah! so you link to Gwen Ken

So there is this query as to whether he is a John or Joseph the father

notes on BCC...

Father called John On Williams Death cert Father called Joseph Mother Mary

but we know on censsus above he is a Joseph
so perhaps the JOhn is an error?
