Thomas Capstick around 1823

[red3]

Hi
I am needing some help or ideas on how to trace Thomas Capstick.
This is all I have:
Marriage bond - Thomas Capstick of Barn Halls Farm Tatham aged 28  to Isabella Taylor of Melling aged 30 date issued 16 January 1823.  (Lancashire Archives)

Married 18 January 1823 at Melling near Hornby Lancashire
Thomas Capstick - Husbandman of the Parish of Tatham to Isabella Taylor spinster of parish.
Witness William Wildman and John Grime.

Christening of Mary Ann Capstick 20 Sept 1823 at Melling near Hornby Lancashire.
(Mary Ann Capstick later married and on the certificate she states her father as Thomas Capstick - Innkeeper)

Only one child found from Thomas and Isabella.

Remarriage of Isabella Capstick to Oliver Gardner (Wood Monger) 23 April 1829. at Melling Lancashire.

I can not find Thomas Capstick's death - which must be between 1823 to 1829 or birth about 1795.

Any ideas on how to trace Thomas Capstick would be very helpful.

Note I have plenty of information on his daughter Mary Ann and wife Isabella. Thanks

Just found Tatham Fell Burial 1760-1837
It has Thomas Capstick of Whennington Melling aged 31
and listed under him is
Isabella Gardner of Whennington aged 41

So that is likely to be him with his widow.

Do you think his birth is likely to be in the Whennington Melling area?

There is a birth at Middleton, Westmoreland which is a bit north, but not out of the realms of possibility.
12 Apr 1795. Thomas CAPSTIC (no K) , parents Edward & Rebecca

Unfortunately I can only see a transcript, but this is the FHS film number. I’ve got to go out so cannot look just now.      0924747

Additional film. 1471872

But PS   The first number is a book of transcripts
The second is not digitised, but microfiche,
