Hi have you got more info about Joseph, age?
Sorry I am not able to do a blanket search on the Stockwell name in Wortley, but I will look for Joseph and family if given more info.

Kind regards
Linda

Hello Linda:
Discrepancy about his age either born in 1812 or 1819 making him either 58 or 52 (or thereabouts) he may have been or was a widower.
Does this help?

Hello Linda:
Thank you very much. That was very kind of you to do.

I'm about 98% sure this is my Joseph Stockwell (my GGF).

I must say that in England people certainly did get around. Here in Canada most immigrants stayed put for generations and only recently have they started moving about.

Have also recently discovered rellies in your part of the world. HALLS and CAMERONS in AU and  NZ. Always fascinating to know that one's DNA is half way around the world.

Should you require any CANADIAN searches I live near the Ontario Archives. Many Yorkshire men and women came to Ontario during the 1800's to 1940's.

With thanks for the information
Alec in Toronto
