Could anyone tell me where Warkonley is please?
In 1851 , taken in Wolstanton, Staffordshire,  I have John Cook b.1795 born at Warkonley, Cheshire, his wife Maria b.1811 at Wolstanton.
 Thank you for any help.

There is a John Cooke [sic] christened 23rd Aug. 1795 Nantwich, in the IGI. Could this be your man?
According to Genuki, Barthomley was in the hundred of Nantwich.

My e-mail system has been playing up so just in case my earlier `thanks` did not arrive could I thank all who helped me with my query  - I would not have read it as Barthomley. I think the baptism is possibly correct too so I am now a line further back.
Many thanks again.
