Title: Walmersley cum Shuttleworth
Post by: Dundonald on Monday 16 July 12 14:49 BST (UK)

I have hit a compete brick wall at my x3 great grandfather, John Fielding. He was born about 1798 in Walmersley (near Bury). Any help about his birth/baptism/parents would be much appreciated.
He later married Hannah Mawdsley 21 May 1823 in St Mary's, Bury. Hannah was born in 1801 in either Gisburn or Keighley, Yorkshire (depending on which census you read!)
