Hi,
Looking for info on my gt grandfather Joseph Richardson b.abt 1839 Cumberland.
He was married to Eleanor Wilson 3/10/1863 at Ferry Hill, Durham.
I have him in the 1871/1881/1891/1901 census

He was the Son of Joseph Richardson, occupation...miner.

In the later census's Joseph is listed as being born in Wigton, CUL. and in one census gives Greenhead, CUL.

If anyone can find him in the earlier census's I would be very grateful.

kind regards,
Bill

Gwen, on the image it looks like Joseph Snr was a male servant (MS), could have changed jobs though by the time of Joseph Jnrs marriage. I must admit I did not see that one in 1841!

Hey Gwen, they are cheating and changing places of birth :biggrin: , shown in 1851 as Bolton Cumberland!!!!!
Both Josephs are coal miners address Little C(hilton) Colliery.

Hi,
Fantastic, you certainly came up trumps.
I took a chance and purchased a birth certificate for a Joseph Richardson,
b.1839 and registered at Wigton.
The birth certificate gives place of birth as Bolton Low, Cumberland.
Parents..... Joseph and Margaret Richardson.

many thanks,
Bill.
