Quote from Mabel;
'm wondering - do we know how old Joseph was? There are four children baptised to Joseph and Hannah between 1786 and 1792, including a Sarah, all in Bridge St Independent Chapel, Walsall, where Ann is baptised in 1813 and favoured by the Denham descendent.

BURIALS;
11 Nov 1792, St Matthews Burial Ground, Walsall, HANNAH, Wife of JOSEPH Denham
25 Dec 1836, St Matthew, Walsall, JOSEPH Denham age 72, abode Rushall St (Birth c 1764)*****

So very possible that Joseph was married twice.

Joseph/Hannah Baptised Children;
JOHN 1786
SARAH 1788
EDMUND 1790
JOSEPH 1792, born 1791

JOSEPH Denham Baptised 25 Sept 1764, St Matthew, Walsall
Father EDWARD, Mother ANN
Sibling EDMUND, 27 May 1766, Parents EDMUND/ANN
(Edward/Edmund are inter-changable)

MARRIAGE 6 Sept 1762 same Church
Edmund DENHAM, Bachelor to Ann LOWBRIDGE, Spinster
Notes; By Licence. Groom and witnesses sign the register. Bride signs (X).
