John Dorat married Thursby 1811

Hi

I am trying to trace the birth of John Dorat who married Mary Robinson in Thursby Cumberland in 1811. They had a son John Dorrett born 1819 in Caldbeck. The name seems to change quite a lot over 200 years and is now Dorritt. Any help would be much appreciated.

Kind Regards

Others at Plumbland -Alexander 11.11.1826 ,Joseph 25.3.1830,Robinson 9.12.1832.

John Dorat's death registered Cockermouth Sep qtr 1842 age 51
Robinson's  also at Cockermouth June 1841 age 8 .

So John b c 1791 .
Will try and find him on census etc.
