Hi Suz,

Do you think his parents could be john and sarah?? as the other richard moved to staff with his wife ann, who are not my relations, if so im gona be made up to have found the parents of richard.

Thanks for your help.

I think it is a strong possibility - as he was baptised same place as John was born?? Also it is Chester Cheshire  - as apposed to "somewhere" in Cheshire
 Have a look on family search for children baptised to John and Sarah (from census there is Hannah Isaac & Thomas
