Thanks for the reply,

Could you please rewrite information.Can you please confirm 'your' Henry was born in 1804 @ Dacre? Are you a descendant?

thanks,

I made a complete dog's breakfast out of that.   Did a cut and pate and completely hashed it.

Henry Atkinson  (Junior)
Christening:  22 AUG 1807   Pateley Bridge, Yorkshire, 
Parents:
  Father:  HENRY ATKINSON  Family
  Mother:  ELIZABETH

Parents:
  Father:  WILLIAM WIGGLESWORTH  Family

Dacre baptisms were at Pateley bridge a chapelry in Ripon parish as there was no church at Dacre , although there were 2 nonconformist ones.

The record you were quoting for the Atkinson Brotherton marriage was submittd by a member of the LDS church, but I cannot find a marriage in the records for that date  Neither could I find another Henry, not to say he doesn't exist somewhere.

The one above  seemed to be the likeliest. I cannot discount a Henry born 1804 but I can't flipping well find him.

In answer to your question I was looking for a Wigglesworth, which turned out to be the wrong one.

I suppose it does not mention Henrys(junior) at the christening?

Also James birth. Could be Henry's brother this one

If you go to
http://www.calverley.info/

there are some transcriptions of records for the Hampsthwaite area.

The entry for the Atkinson marriage is:
1804 11 26 ATKINSON James   Ripon BROTHERTON Ann Hampsthwaite  Witnesses: Henry Atkinson, J.Stubbs

(J Stubbs was probably the clerk - he witnessed most of the marriages)
