Hello again Dettori 28, Julie, Heywood and Geoff.

Good news!  The birth certificate arrived today and it is the right one.  There must have been a problem with it, as it has taken so long to get to me (the others I ordered arrived within a week).  So you were all correct.  Jonathan Dawson was born in early June 1847 to parents Joseph Dawson and Mary Lucas (so that was right too).  I have got the marriage date of the family search website: 13 June 1832 in Haile, Cumberland.  That's quite a few pieces of my 'jigsaw' complete - thanks to you all.

Thanks again for all of your help -  you have been terrific!

Kind regards and best wishes,
Michael

Hi Heywood,

Thanks for that reply - you have been terrific. 

I have tried to put 'Completed' on this post, as requested, but it didn't work.  I haven't quite figured out how to do it.

I will try again later...

Bye for now and thank you so much again.

Michael

Hello Michael,

They say patience is a virtue and that patience has now been rewarded with the answer you most wanted to hear. I am absolutely delighted the good news.  Hope the rest of your research is going well.

Regards.
Sandra

Hi Sandra and Julie,

Thanks for your congratulations.  Thanks also for your best wishes with regard to future research.  There are still a few ancestors that I am finding difficult to 'track down', so it would be good to think our paths may cross again.

Thanks again for all of your help and best wishes to you both.

Best wishes,
Michael

Hi Michael,
May be too late to be of use to you, but I'm a descendant of Jonathan and Hannah and have put together profiles (with sources) for them on Wikitree: Jonathan is https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Dawson-6453 and Hannah is https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Sumpton-9. Hopefully there might be some info that's still new to you - and please let me know if you've got stuff about them that's not present.
Cheers,
Andy
