Like JL, I was also confused by your request.
Pels.
I'm getting a bit that way as well!
Pels. but! 1841c is the key!
For all Rootschat readers or researchers of this familyBradford parish register have Bradford city its self and Sub Chapels within its greater parish that include Thornton area/Denholme before 1846 church , if a Groom of a couple married from Thornton they would be entered in that chapelry list. Joseph died 1906 in NSW Australia father John Atkinson Mother Hannah Foster death age unknown or not given on Rootschat. Married Bradford 1813 from Bradford city list itself. I have not found any record yet that links John Atkinson & Sarah Lunn marriage 1832 Bradford as the same John as Hannah Foster marriage 1813 only a witness was a Foster (So could be)
Having Looked up Aussy records and YAS records in Leeds/ WYAS Wakefield and Bradford/ and Wills at YORK Borthwick insitute and deeds registers-Thus its possible that the John husband of Hannah Foster M 1813 Bradford city could be as follows and reason for the 1841 census info! needed.
Title: Joseph Atkinson, one of 250 convicts transported on the Lady Kennaway, 30 January 1851.
Details: Sentence details: Convicted at York, Bradford Quarter Sessions for a term of 7 years on 30 June 1847.
Vessel: Lady Kennaway.
Date of Departure: 30 January 1851.
Place of Arrival: Van Diemen's Land.

I do think John Atkinson in 1851 c with his 50 acres of Denholme was the John Atkinson Mannel Height death/Will 1856 buried Denholme church 1856 as the Sarah Lunn marriage 1832 but have serous reservations now that its the same John as the John and Hannah Foster marriage 1813.
As advised on other threads
