Maddie - those trees on ancestry show a man who married in 1809 a Betty Sutcliffe?

There is one tree (Mists of Time) that has managed to mangle together records for the two different James Wilcock/Wilcox.

If John confirms this as the right 1861 then I'd be quite confident about the baptism I posted:

WILCOCK, James Head Married M 56 1795 Cotton Porter Plumpton, Lancashire
WILCOCK, Hannah Wife Married F 66 1785 Newton, Yorkshire
WILCOCK, Hannah Daughter Unmarried F 31 1820 At Home Liverpool, Lancashire
WILCOCK, James Son Unmarried M 29 1822 Porter Liverpool, Lancashire
BROUGHTON, Henry Grand Son M 4 1847 Scholar Liverpool, Lancashire
BLACK, Thomas Lodger Unmarried M 31 1820 Cabinet Maker Scotland

The 1861 census shows his birthplace as Plumpton, Lancs. I think that comes under the Fylde district so this is a probable:

Lancashire, England, Baptisms, Marriages and Burials, 1538-1812
Name: James Wilcock
Birth Date: 20 Jun 1791
Baptism Date: 17 Jul 1791
Parish: Poulton le Fylde
Father's Name: Joseph Wilcock - flax dresser
Mother's Name: Margt Wilcock
Reference Number: Pr2831/8
