I would like to thank everyone for their help

My difficulty is that I do not live in UK and everything I do is either by internet or telephone.
Sarah thank you so much for your support. You don't know how much I appreciate your words.
And I am going to try calling The Roots Cellar and see if they can give me some advice.
And I am definitely going to check out Joseph Wilman under his mother's maiden name Fanny Thompson.
I did find a baptism on Ancestry for a Joseph Wilman on June 13, 1824 in Thornton by Bradford that gives the mother's name as Fanny. There is no mention of a father. I will have to dig into this. Just don't know where to begin.
Thanks
