Joshua Bentley
« on: Monday 13 April 20 18:39 BST (UK) »
Hello,
My ancestor, Joshua Bentley married Elizabeth Crowther(son)/Crowker in 1846. They had 4 children. I can't find Joshua's birth or death anywhere. They lived in Elland and he was a stone mason but I would dearly love to know who Joshua's parents were. Can anyone help?
Thank you.
