Phil - hello again
I have some baptisms for my family, found by another RC-er, who did a fab. job, but if it is possible to fill some gaps, I should be delighted 
One I would dearly love to have is for my 2 x great grandmother Mary Walmsley, and any possible siblings for my 2 x great grandfather John Prescott.
I have John's baptism in 1801 at St. Winfreds, and John and Mary's marriage at St. Johns (I understand they weren't allowed to marry in catholic church in 1826 ) and I have the baptisms of their children, including my great grandfather Thomas.
Mary Walsmley says on census born c. 1806/7 and I have her death certificate 8 Oct 1868 aged 61.
John Prescott's parents were Thomas Prescott and Ellen Rostron. I have his bap - were there any siblings. I wonder ?
Lastly - Robert Dunderdale c. 1810; he was my 2 great grandad too - his daughter Jane married Thomas. I have no bap or siblings for Robert - and only possible parents (Robert and Barbara)
Incidentally, Jane Dunderdale and Thomas Prescott married at St Joseph's school, in 1854, not St Wilfred's church; any idea why that might have been ?
Your help will be much appreciated

Phil - that's great Thank you so much 
Just my luck that the one I really want most - Mary Walmsley - is bang in the middle of the missing ones
And Robert Dunderdale, 1810 However, the Robert and Jane you found seem most likely to be the correct family - Robert b. 1810 named his daughter Jane The possible Barbara came from a very very bad 1841 census image as being in the right place and age - and I could well have mis-read it anyway.
Mary Walmsleys parents are now the only missing pair of 3 x great grandparents Can I ask - is there a Walmsley family on the register who might have had a Mary 1807 ? IE: baps either side of the missing dates ?
