Not sure but it could be them. Roberts & John look to be twins but could that be Johns dob & not Roberts? Robert i have dob as 1817.

This is the only one in the Darwen area.

I think Ralph had died before 1841. I dont think its the correct family in 1841 census. Different dob,s & ages

Iv`ve been told that Ellen was on the 1841 census with five of her 6 boys. And so possibly Ralph had died before then.

don't forget that ages were rounded down for people over age 15 in 1841 so 2 people born 3 years apart would show as the same age

it was actually on GR I did a search for a Ralph in 1841which is probably the one Ozibird found

The 1841 NinjaLady found looks promising.

Address: Pole Lane

Image has eldest son as Edmund, blacksmith
Robert, ag lab
the other boys are Colliers.

Yes it does. Perhaps Ralph remarried before the 1841 cen & not died? And goingback to the 1841 census it probably is the correct family & includes Arthur the fifth son. thanks

There are so many Ralphs & so many Entwistle/Entwisle in Pole Lane alone that I think your Ralph probably has died. Ralph, of Ralph & Betty found 1841 & 1851, may be a cousin or some such relative.

Ozi.

did not pick up John's baptism as Ellen is down as Helen

Baptism: 5 Jun 1819 Lower Chapel Independent, Over Darwen, Lancashire, England
John Shaw Entwistle - Son of Ralph Entwistle & Helen (formerly Shaw)
Born: 20 Feb 1819
Abode: Pickupbank Pickupbank Blackburn
Baptised by: R. Blake
Register: Baptisms 1815 - 1838, Page 41
Source: LDS Film 0560876

that would give age 20 on 1841 making NijaLady's even more likely

Yes thats got to be John Shaw Entwistle as his middle name was his grandmothers surname.
kind regards to yourself & ninjalady for your help.
