Hi, I have a James Fearon b1871Cockermouth
He married Clara Brook/s in 1894 Cockermouth. There is also a James Henderson Fearon born 1871 MMS Clark. This is where the puzzle starts. James no2 his parents are Joseph b1831 and either Mary or Elizabeth. On the 1871 census mother is Mary, 1881 census it's Elizabeth then 1891 it's Elizabeth. I've found a marriage in 1869 between Joseph and Elizabeth Young nee Clark in Cockermouth. On the census there is a William Clark stepson. No marriage for a Mary. Is it the same person, is James and James H the same person. Then to add to the mix there is another James Fearon born Cockermouth 1871, mother Mary Fearon living with Grandparents Downey. My head is a shed. On family trees in Ancestry they have Mary Henderson and Elizabeth Clark for Joseph's spouses.
Hopefully someone can sort it for me.
Thankyou
