Find Ancestors

Hi,

Ok,Phoenix Cookson is my GGGGG Grandad.
Im stuck going back any further.
On another site i have searched and searched for Phoenix Bapt record to no avail.
So i searched Phoenix's four sons Bapt recs which i did find.

Anyway on all of son's it says eg;William Cookson son of Phoenix Cookson natural son of------------------------

Does this mean Phoenix was illegitamate?

Another question will be is that if this is the case is there anyway i could trace Phoenix's mother??

Hope someone can help,

Many thanks,

Luan

Ps,Phoenix was born 1757c in Upton Yorkshire,
Married Sarah Longbottom 23/11/1785 in Badsworth Yorkshire then married Ann Pearson 23/11/1796 in Ackworth Yorkshire who is the mother of all four sons.
Phoenix died 2/7/1837 in Upton Yorkshire.

I realise that but in digging arund the census I am hoping his parents will turn up - as he named his second child Charles - perhaps his father was Charles?

Thankyou Ann your so kind.You have come up with info i did'nt know as i did'nt know that Phoenix and his first wife Sarah had any children.

Luan

Thankyou again.
