Unfortunately the IGI entries for Joseph and his siblings have been submmitted and show parents as Joseph and Mary Dodd ( which they obviously are not.)

thanks ike,but wrong family

mike ,Parents are John Rowland and Ruth Rowland

Where did that information come from?

I thought you said you didn't know who Joseph's parents were ?

I am looking in my work book and have come across some old research that says they are maybe his parents

thanks to you all who have helped.I willkeep trying and i'll get the certs.Thanks again,

Oh dear, so my Joseph and Mary are not the correct ones then?
