Just got the birth certificate for James Hodgins born September 1840 Ashton under Lyne. Parents John Hodgins and Caherine Hodgins formerly Corbet. Is there a marriage for them before 1840? Are they in the census anywhere. Looks like they lived in Mofs St. Fathers occupation looks like Cooper? Any help much appreciated. There were two James Hodgins born in the same town same year.

That brilliant. Any 1861 census? James had enlited in the army by then. Wondered if the parents were still alive? Are the Corbets in the 1841 or census? What is a Cooper?
Thank you very much.
