Thank you all for the information!  I do not know how to reply separately to each.  Is there any information regarding John's parents?

Really no need to reply separately, we just appreciate a "thank you" which you have already done  :).
At the moment I don`t think any of us can get a handle on John.  You say he later married an Esther - do you have the marriage and have you found him on a census?

I gathered the information on John Hardy via google search.  This led me to a Rootschat post from the year 2006.  (This is how I discovered Rootschat  :) ) It included 1841 census info.  John was age 35 and his wife Esther age 25 was listed on census. A comment was made that they didn't realize John had a second wife.  The children listed on census were James Richard age 15 and Emma 6 months.

Hmmm!  not convinced that the John Hardy in 1841 is the father of James Richard.  Relationships not given in 1841.   That John is an Agricultural Labourer not a Hatter.  Bit of a backwards step.
