Hi
For the birth of Thomas Capstick I have 2 possible:

Thomas and Betty Capstick parents of Thomas Capstick born 23 March 1793 chris. 5 May 1793 at St John Preston Lancashire.

OR

Edward and Jane Capstick parents of Thomas Capstick born 29 Nov 1795 at Dent Yorkshire.

There is another possible
Thomas and Mary Capstick parents of Thomas Capstick born 9 Nov 1794 at Dent Yorkshire
Trees online have this Thomas married to Jane Greenwood 12 May 1821 at Dent Yorkshire.

I did wonder if this Thomas who married Jane Greenwood was the child of Edward and Jane Capstick? 
AS the Thomas and Jane combination have there oldest child - Edward born 28 Oct 1821 Dent.


Tatham Fells Burial record 1760-1837
20 Nov 1825 Thomas Capstick Wennington Melling  aged 31
10 April 1834 Isabella Gardner Wennington            aged 41

I think this will be Isabella.  And this is likely to be her 2nd husband

Oliver Gardner aged 33 years,
abode Wennington,
buried 1st October 1833,

Hi
At Lancashire Archives they have a "Certificate" in there collection dated 15 May 1824.

The description reads:  Thomas Capstick of Wray with Bolton, Husbandman is fit and proper person to keep The Punch Bowl Wennington.  Witnessed
John Tatham Vicar
Henry Briscoe Warden
John Dugdale Overseer
Richard Atkinson
J.B Leeming
Chris Wilson
William Wildman **
Sureties: Christopher Sidgewick of Melling Husbandman

Would this document have any more information on it that what is transcribed in the description?

The name William Wildman also a witness to the wedding of Thomas Capstick to Isabella Taylor.

I believe that  Isabella was born to Ann Taylor and baptised at the Church of the Good Shepard in Tatham 18 March 1792.  Ann Taylor married Thomas Wildman 21 April 1792 at Tatham.

The Lancashire Gazette dated 25 Jan 1823 has marriage announcement - Thomas Capstick of Hall Barns to Isabella the eldest daughter of Mr Thomas Wildman Master of the Free Grammar School High Bentham.
Ann's father Thomas Wildman died 13 Oct 1825 aged 58 yrs.  Lancashire Archives has will dated 6 March 1826.

Still no closer to solving where Thomas Capstick was from.

Found the marriage bond for Isabella Taylor and Thomas Capstick on ancestry.

The marriage bond has their baptism record attached which reads:

Isabella daughter of Ann Taylor baptized 18 March 1792 Tatham in Lancashire

Thomas son of Thomas Capstick of Windy Hill Laborer and Mary his wife November 9th 1794 Dent Sedbergh West Riding Yorkshire.

This is a very nice find!  Now to track down Thomas and Mary of Sedbergh.
