Where was he born please?

Have successfully traced family back to great great grandad but having problems getting exact details for parents of Noah Shakeshaft born 05/06/1813. I know that they were Thomas and Ellen but Ellen who? The only ones i can find were married in 1792 and Noahs parents had more children in 1817 and 1824 so it is unlikely to be that Ellen!
Can anybody help?
