Thanks again Lizzie. I wonder if Richard's father was a Cooper? But then the issue would be why doesn't he carry that surname? Chrs, Rob

Thanks Lizzie! I certainly have not spotted that one. In such a small locality I guess it looks like the 2 natural births are of siblings. Any ideas on how to locate the true father? Rob.

Thanks Maddy. No, I have not heard of this marriage and am also unsure about the validity of any connection to Rachel. Cheers, Rob.

No, Rachel did not name a father upon marriage. Hannah did not remarry as far as I know.

Seeking please any information regarding the paternal side of my gg-grandmother, Rachel BECKWITH, born in 1811 i Bretton West, Yorkshire. According to the baptismal entry she was born illegitimate to Hannah nee BECKWITH. I understand of course I may never know who her father was, however according to an Ancestry suggestion prompt, the father may have been a George BECKWITH (1794-1854). Can someone find any credence in this theory? I cannot find a George BECKWITH in the area at that time and of that young age. I cannot follow up any other details per Ancestry as I do noy have a full membership! Any help here is much appreciated. Thank you. Cheers, Rob.
