I can't find Joshua's birth or death anywhere.

Elizabeth was a widow in 1861.

BENTLEY, JOSHUA
aged 35

Well that's interesting....so Joshua must have died between 1858 and 1861.
Is there any way I can narrow down the possible places of Richard's birth if it wasn't Yorkshire or is it just a hard slog?
Thank you all for this help - it has been fantastic.

Yes it would be a hard slog.

I looked at Familysearch for RB born c 1792-1799 England.
There are quite a few.
So you would have to eliminate them from 1851 Censu with those places of birth and hopefully come up with a short list of possibles ::)
