Hi Jim/Isobel

In view of the 1861 details could this be the baptism of Thomas?  I say this solely because of Thomas' occupation in 1861.

BAPTISM
25 September 1836 - St Botolph, Knottingley
Thomas - Father John occ Limeburner - Mother Mary

There is another baptism 28 May 1837 at the same church.  Father George occ Waterman, Mother Ann.

Sheila,

I have seen both of these names on the 1841 census , but I dont know which one to try for. I have just received Thomas's marriage certificate and there isn't a father's name on there   

It's a good point what you have said about the quarry though !

BUT

If his father was a waterman , would that mean just up and down the river Aire or off at sea , I wonder.
