I'm going to assume that you have done the standard things: checked the IGI and the other materials that come up on familysearch.org. Try the different sorts of searches on familysearch if you haven't. You may need to go ahead and order daughter Rosamond Gleave's birth certificate if you don't find someone else who has the info. This isn't much help, I know. Sorry. I guess you could search freebmd for a marriage record prior to the baby's birth, and that may tell you where Philip Gleave was born and see if that information correlates with yours. That might help you narrow the field. Parish registers were still kept, even though civil registration was in effect from 1837, so you might want to look at the parish registers at an LDS FHC for both Stockport and Bristol and see if you can find any correlation between when one disappears and the other shows up. Did you check the 1851 and 1841 Censuses?

Sharon Thanks for your help, and you aren't being bossy. My Philip has been driving me mad for some time, I have his baptism and birth date from Parish Records, and address in 1949 from Rossamonds birth certificate, he is also in several trade directories from the 1830's. I have looked through the 1841, 1851 and 1861 census returns for Stockport, Bristol and Ashton (One of his other brothers lived on Cotton Street, Ashton). I have a possible link in Breconshire where a Philip GLEAVE died in 1867. I Have found another Philip GLEAVE who was born in 1817 aslo from the stockport area. I really need to crack my Philip problem as I am starting to loose sleep over it.
