Hi

Thank you mgeneas that is a fantastic help.

Were there any other marriages for John as I thought he was living with a Harriet in 1851 but I need to check again.

The marriage is in the Northants 1837-1860 marriage index

John CHARITY otp, age 41, bachelor, labourer, father Wiliam, labourer
Catherine GOODLIFF otp, age, 29, spinster, father John, shoemaker
21 Aug 1859 Wakerley

Good that confirms the 1841 census for Catherine as mentioned above.

Thanks you guys, this is brilliant!!!

I don't suppose there is any away of tracing Robert's father? Or could we guess that it was John Charity, as he married Catherine soon after he was born?

Any idea what the convention was in those days?

Thanks again, everyone.

Tony

I was able to visit Wakerley a couple of weeks ago, but found that none of the headstones in the churchyard were readable. :(
Time and weather has taken its toll.
I did get some wonderfull photos of the church itself. :)

Thanks again for eaveryones help.

Hi All.

Tony, Catherine was baptised at Wakerley  to John and Charlotte
on the 01 07 1832.

Does it state where Robert was born, if not at home  it could be possible
that Robert was born in a workhouse if the family could not care for
Catherine.

Thanks Sandy.

Robert would have been 15 at the time. I think Kate was just born, and they had a mass baptism for the family!!

May I ask which Library you found these records?

Robert's birth cert. shows 'where born' as Wakerley, but no father's name. I think they were living with John Charity at the time, and feel sure that he was Robert's father.
