Hi Slug,

Not sure what kind of information you are looking for. I can see him on the 1841 and 1851 census. Any use?  :)

It might be useful to say that the was born in Stoke (1851 says Stoke Lane, 1861 says Stoke St Michael). Harriett was from Kilmersdon and the eldest child according to 1851 was born ca. 1827 Kilmersdon.

I see he's remarried in 1861, to a 38 year old Caroline. If we find their marriage then the cert would tell William's father's name...

This may be the one:
Dec 1858 Frome 5c 951 (or 931?)
Caroline Rossiter - William Cullen

I see the children's christenings are on FreeCen.

Not the marriages however  :(

I've found this site which looked very promising but can't see the marriage there either
