Title: Oldham family of Emley/Kirkburton lookup please. [c.1780]
Post by: Thompson on Sunday 30 May 10 16:09 BST (UK)

Hi guys,

  I'm searching for any information regarding the family of Jonathan Oldham my G.G.G.G Grandfather who was born c.1781 in Hepworth. I have the details of his marriage to Elizabeth Blacker in 1806 at Emley also their 5 children and further descendancy. The 1851 & 1861 census' both record him at a younger age, suggesting he was born in 1789.
 I'm struggling to find any record of Jonathan's baptism thus no record of parents and siblings (if any) from the IGI. His 2nd marriage record of 1848 does however record his father as John Oldham a Clothier so that may help.

Thank you for your time people!
Regards,

Peter.
