Hi Mike, plk74 and lynn,
Thank you very much for your responses with helpful information. I have a copy of The Story of the Dining Fork.
James Walker 1779-1862 is my 3 x great grandfather and I am through his son James 1813-1853
I have found quite a bit of information on the family in the Leeds Intelligencer, Leeds Times and Bradford Observer.
Rachel's death is also recorded in The Leeds Times July 4 1846
Do you have have a Leeds Library membership Mike and lynn as I can access the 'explore library' link you posted but none others?
Grateful thanks

Thank you so much for the prompt replies 
Calverley Lad. I have previously looked at http://wharfegen.org.uk/ but I was unable to confirm the dates.
dobfarm. To date I have not located probate/will for James.
I currently have subs to Ancestry.co.uk and FindMyPast.co.uk so I'm constantly searching !!! but I'm still a relative newbie and willing to learn.

James WALKER & Rac(a)hel HARRISON marriage in May 1808 at Otley.
Rach(a)el is the eldest daughter of John HARRISON of Midgley House. She was buried June 29th 1846 at St John the Evangelist, Leeds.
Census
James (a butcher) 1841 at Leeds with Rachel and sons Thomas & Joseph HO 107/1346/1
1851 at Leeds with his son Thomas and grandson James Kitchin HO 107/2319
1861 at Leeds with his sister Mary Trees RG 9/3387
I have been unable to locate a death (post 1861) for James or a birth abt 1780-1786
Any help or suggestions would be most welcome. Thank you
Janet
