Andy Your first post said he died in 1854. Now you say 1857. Where was he in 1841 and who was he with?

Morning Lin You're observant this morning! I remembered it as 1854 when I first posted, but I checked the death cert. for the second post as I remembered where I'd hidden it! It is 1857 - the 1854 death is for the Cumberworth one! In 1841 they're at Combs, Thornhill 1270/8/47/2 - Joseph 55 weaver, Nancy 60, Miles 15, Joseph 6, Edward 2. Don't be misled by the children - they are *grandchildren*, sons of Sarah and William Tweedale, 2 of them are with Sarah/Sally in 1851 - I downloaded that image this morning but the FMP image has such poor contrast that's it's almost unreadable but there seem to be 2 children there (FMP has Christian names unknown as the page is torn) Thanks for looking, Andy.
