Member Since: January 2006 Posts: 19 Send Message	Hi He is living with his son James in Featherstall Road, Oldham in 1861. No spouse listed with him though. Still trying to find him in earlier censuses. Think he was born in Yorkshire Thanks

	There is one in Oldham in 1851 with wife Hannah, of that age, born Sutterby, Yorkshire, but not with a son James. Can you give more details, please?

Member Since: January 2006 Posts: 19 Send Message	Oh yes, sorry!! See what I mean about too many James's? I'm also more confused as it looks as if both son and father were married to a Hannah then? Think I've been in the sun too much today!!
