Hello,
This family is giving me the biggest headache right now.
I've struggled to find a marriage for William Stockdale (abt. 1806) and Deborah Jackson(abt.1807-1842). I have 1832 in my tree for a marriage but I suspect I've accidently copied that over from someone else as I can't find where I got that from.
This would be a second marriage as his first wife, Mary Bell, is buried in 1828.
I also don't know where he goes beyond his wife's death. The youngest children are in the workhouse in 1851. According to the 1841 census he was a shoe (I assume maker).
I have found 5 children for them but I'm questioning if that last 2 are the same person.
Jane Stockdale (abt.1834 -?) I have her as a dairy maid in 1851 but I'm struggling after that.
William Stockdale (1837-1907) - I think I'm ok with him.
John Stockdale (1840-1916) - my 2xggf
Mary Stockdale (1842-?) - I have a baptism but no birth record. I have nothing on her other than the baptism.
Isabella Stockdale (1842-?) I have a birth certifictae but no baptism. There's nothing to suggest these 2 were twins nor does she have a middle name of Mary. With some help I think I have her on the 1871 census as Isabella 'Stogdall/Stogdale' still in the workhouse as the 1851 and 1861 census.
Any help with any of the above would be very much appreciated as I don't think headache tablets are going to help ;)
PS William anwers no to 'whether born in the same county' so I've no idea where he came from and certainly don't have a baptism for him or any idea of his parents.

Thank you I will check the link for Deborah out. I never think to look on family search, partly because I don't like it and partly because it's never a place I think of looking. I wonder if they have the marriage.

Oh it seems I have those as Deborah's parents in my tree. It's William and the daughters that are causing me problems :S ???
