Hi,
You will not find any info re illegitimate births for Thomas & Anne Woolfit because as far as the Church was concerned they were registered as the children of Sarah Woolfit a married woman, even if her husband was dead.
You do not say when Joseph Woolfit died, do you have this information? Where and when he died could lead to his Will.
Are you also aware that a William Woolfit, also of the Parish of Harmston, Lincolnshire married
Sarah Hunt on 2nd January 1821 Denby Derbyshire.
What relation was Joseph to William?
