William Gray Hacking - what happened to his parents?

[ChrissieL]

did they have a son John born 1839 - and died 2 months later ? - note the Abode of Burnley - did John move from Accrington but go back to his church for the burial of his son ?

Burial: 19 Mar 1839 St James, Accrington, Lancashire, England
 John Gray - Son of John Gray
     Died: 16 Mar 1839
     Age: 2 Months
     Abode: Burnley
     Cause of Death: Convulsions
   

Thank you Garstonite. It's a possibility although I can't see a birth of a John Gray with mmm Hacking in that year. It's it possible that he wasn't registered??

This John was the son of John & Ellen, not John & Alice, That John was listed as a weaver, this John as a labourer. All on Lancashire parish Clers site - haven't got time to repeat the search at the moment!

Thank you everyone for looking. I think the deaths of Alice Gray and Ellen Gray are my Alice and Ellen. I will send for the certificate in due course just to confirm that.   If
Alice was 22 when she died she would be born about 1818.  Also on the marriage entry on Lancashire OPC site one of the witnesses is a William Hacking so maybe a brother. Unfortunately it doesn't give the father's names.  I can't find a John Gray who I can say conclusively that it is my John Gray. Ill Keep Looking!!
