finding burial place of gt grandfather

[JenB]

You state that you have James marriage certificate.

For the occupation of his Father, what was written on the Certificate please?
Does it state that his Father was deceased?
Were there any witnesses to the wedding?

There are many other details on the several threads I linked to in reply #2, including the marriage 

Marriage January 18th 1854 Macclesfield

James Slack, 30, bachelor, printer. Father: James Slack, labourer
Margaret Kemp, 22, spinster. Father: Thomas Kemp, colour maker

Witnesses: Henry James Bryan and Thomas Hoblands?

Thank you.

You are putting in a lot of work on chestnut's behalf 

Some of the baptisms you mention in your first reply were, I think, suggested in this thread which I suggest you take a look at

Haha!

Thank you. 

The Abraham Slack that was mentioned in one of the posts in the link you show above was born in Prestbury, in 1819. 

The Abraham Slack that I found was baptised in 1820, in Staffordshire, in Longdnor. 

This is getting complicated.

Haha!

The 1820 Longnor one was actually referred to reply #1 on the thread I just mentioned, but the link given to freeREG has now expired.

There's this one for Longnor..

There has been a lot of duplication of work and effort on the various threads about this person.

Yes.

Thank you again.

It appears that from looking at Census returns, there were two Abraham's who were around the same age, as the one that I found being born in 1820, possibly (if I remember correctly) in the same area also.

It is also interesting that one of the replies on the post that you pasted a link to suggested that on his Marriage Certificate, the name James could have been written in twice by mistake. One of them being under the section for the name of his father!

Cheers.

Thank you to everyone for their help and advice in my search.  On James' marriage certificate to Margaret Kemp it states that his father was also called James .  I am now thinking that perhaps there were other first names although they were known as James.  James snr was present at the wedding of James & Margaret Kemp on the 18th January 1854. and was listed as a labourer.  On the 1841/51  it shows the address as Bank Edge Wildborclough.  This is also in the Parish of Prestbury.  He was living with an Abraham Slack who was a calico printer as was James so I am presuming they were brothers.  I have spoken to the Vicar of Sutton Church and he can't find any records relating to James' burial.  I will keep searching.   thank you again

Just wondering how you know he was present? He wasn't one of the witnesses

To echo Jen's point, James answered to the vicars question,What's your father's name and what job does he do.........James and he's a labourer.It doesn't mean he was present at his wedding nor does it even mean that he is still alive.It depends if the vicar asked that question too.
