You can try to find Joseph and Martha's parents by looking yourself on the IGI

www.familysearch.org

That was where I found their marriage - and the baptisms of some of their children

Or try the Lancs OPC - google for website link.

From freebmd - which, again, you can search yourself - this seems to be the death of Frances's mother

Deaths Sep 1850 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

STATHAM Harriet Salford 20 744


If you now look on freebmd for Robert's re-marriage, you will be able to order the certificate to find out his father's details.

The best part of family research is finding things yourself

Can I just say that the birthplace for Robert as per 1851 should read Alrewas. Ancestry's transcription is inaccurate

Thanks again, i have little spare time at the moment, so i really appreciate your help. I am searching as much as possible, maybe i am trying to fill in too much in too many branches...
Your knowledge and expertise helps you to find these details much quicker than me, once i have navigated myself around all the sites, the rest should fall in to place.
Thanks again for all the research you have done for me.
