				That's the wrong death certificate as Martha's last child was born after this date.  David you can search the BMD indices for free at Ancestry.com and at freebmd.org.uk

				Joseph Senior son of James and Martha Senior was born 1839 in Barnsley Road, Kirkgate not Liverpool.  The census has a ditto symbol for Joseph's birthplace under his sister born Wakefield.  William Senior was the first of the line born in Liverpool, Lancs.
