I have asked the moderator to move your post to the Staffs board.  Betley is in Staffs

He was Moses - not Mosses

I cannot find a birth record for Moses around 1812, as his eldest son was Moses it is possible his own father was Moses also, maybe the one below?

Moses Whitmore baptism 10 Dec 1775 Wybunbury, Cheshire (3miles from Betley)
Father Thomas

GRO records for the children on the 1861 census, (Hannah is Ann on 1851) states the mother as Edwards, so I assume that there was an earlier marriage for Maria?

witnesses to the 1836 marriage were John Jones & Sarah Edwards.

Possible baptism in Longton 4 June 1809 Maria, daughter of William & Ann Edwards.

Looks like a connection for the Whitmore surname to Wybunbury;

Marriage;
18 Nov 1807, St Margaret, Betley, Staffs
Geo. WHITMORE to Mary HITCHEN
George of Wibunbury

F/S has a possible Bapt for George 17 September 1780 Wybunbury, Cheshire, Father THOMAS

Cant see him on Census though to confirm pob/dob

Thanks for your PM.

Ok I see Moses/Maria were witnesses to the marriage of Henry Whitmore 1840
(Father Abraham and a widower)
Henry was buried 05 Jun 1876 age 63

Abraham married Maria HALL 05 Aug 1811

Sorry still cant see any one line bapt for Henry or Moses with a Father Abraham.
