If any body could help i would greatly appreciate it

Hello Rebecca - who did he marry, where and when?

His marriage certificate should name his father (if known).

If you buy his marriage cert. it will give you at least, his fatherf's name and occupation which may help find him in early census records.
Where, when and who did he marry?

He married Betsy Turner 1846 Derbshire

1841?

The census dosnt really tell me anything is there a christening record?

Hunt Lucy Derby 19 476
Robinson Samuel Derby 19 476
xxxx Robotham William Derby 19 476
xxxx Turner Betsey Derby 19 476

............what makes you think he had the middle name of George?

I can see onluy 2 possible baptisms, one in All Saints Derby and this one:-

name: William Robotham
gender: Male
baptism/christening date: 08 May 1825
baptism/christening place: ASTON-ON-TRENT,DERBY,ENGLAND
birth date:
birthplace:
death date:
name note:
race:
father's name: John Robotham
father's birthplace:
father's age:
mother's name: Ann
mother's birthplace:
mother's age:
indexing project (batch) number: C04716-1
system origin: England-ODM
source film number: 497377

.............the one in All Saints is a different 1841 census entry:-
name: William Robotham
event: Census
event date: 1841
gender: Male
age: 15
birthplace: Derbyshire
record type: Household
registration district: Derby
sub-district: St Alkmund
civil parish: All Saints
county: Derbyshire

.............. so the other one could be it, but you will need the marriage cert to confirm father's name.

The death record

According to the 1861 (if this is the right one) his middle initial is "A"

EDIT: Looking at the original image there is NO middle initial. The curly bit on the capital R has wrongly been picked up as another letter.

The 1861 census would fit is there a christening record for him

Rebecca, the only christening records to be found are those already posted above.

Sorry i think that one above is correct
Thankyou very much for your help and all the best for the future

Kind regards

Rebecca
