Hi everyone, im looking for a little help if possible;
i'm trying to locate marriage details for my ancestors James Jackson and Jenny (I dont have a maiden name). i know they lived in Oldham and had at least one child, Robert. Robert's baptism certificate is as follows;
Baptism Record 12th October 1817, St Peter's Chapel, Prestwich cum Oldham. Robert Jackson, son of James and Jenny Jackson. Abode, Oldham. Fathers Occupation, Hatter.
Other than this baptism record and the listing of James Jackson's name on his sons wedding certificate (in 1837) i have no other information on James and Jenny.
Any help would be fantastic, thanks

Luke have you any thoughts that Jenny is Sally
St Mary Oldham
21st Fen 1816
James Jackson,hatter of Cannon St
Sally Jones spinster of Cannon St,
both made their mark,
witnessed by Ralph Jackson and Thos Jackson,
with consent of both parents,

These might be siblings of Robert
They all have parents James and Jenny

Betty Jackson 26th September 1819 St Peter Oldham
Hannah Jackson 19th August 1824 St Peter Oldham

Are any of the christenings above, 'family' names?

The baptisms that Heather listed, including Robert, all have a father with hatter as occupation

There is a James Jackson with same children except Robert. His wife is listed as Jane.

Hi everyone, thanks for all this work. I have no prior knowledge of James and Jenny's other children so this really gives me something to dig into. i'd not really considered Jenny being wrong before and Sally being the correct name, i'll keep it in mind as I search.
Louisamay, would it be possible for you to list the details of the first 1841 census - Class Ho107, I have the other census but had no idea of this one
Thank you all
