Hi looking for parents of John Stakes born abt 1850
Morley area is it possible to look up 1861 census and see what his parents were called and where born I can only find a birth for Wakefield so a little confused
Thanks Chris

In 1861 he was an inmate in Dewsbury Union Workhouse
There are no parents but he does have his brother William age 8 and sister Mary 5 with him. They were all born in Morley

I will look for him in 1851

Small problem with this if Betty was a widow in 1851 where did William and Mary come from in the 1861could ther be another John Stakes and I got the place of birth wrong as I said only birth I could find was Wakefield always the same the more you find out the more questions there are

I didn't notice the problem with the 1851, - 61 census, but that was the only 1851 family I could find. The youngest ones could be illegitimate of course. It is annoying that the Morley baptisms are not on the IGI

the ages were rounded down so he could have been 25 to 29, so this fits in with his age on the burial
The address is Bentham Grove Morley and he is a woollen dyer

If Betty remarried in 1866 then John, William and Mary must all be iligitimate
