I have looked at the 1881 image and I would say that your Marget is really 'Mary J' i.e. Mary Jane..

Thank you very much Dea. Yes Jane died and Joseph remarried within the year if my research is correct. Thanks also for the babtism info. I did have George's so it shouldn't be too hard to match up the rest of the dates with the family I have so far.

Looks like Jane died and Joseph remarried, if this is him on 1911 Census:


ROGERSON, Joseph Samuel Head Married M 63 1848 School Keeper For A Mission Manchester Lancashire
ROGERSON, Alice Wife Married 10 years F 63 1848 Preston Lancashire
ROGERSON, Rosetta Daughter Single F 21 1890 Cotton Weaver Blackburn Lancashire

Thank you very much Susan. I am pretty sure this is him. His occupation for much of his early years was cotton weaver. I had estimated his death to be around 1913, so will follow that up too. You have been such a great help. :)

This looks like his death reg.

Hi Susan, It could very well be him. The age and spouse are right, as are the children, with the exception of Mary, however given how people changed first and second names all the time back then, I think you have found him.
Cheers mate!

Is this him ,the original image is very bad so who is stated as Mary could be Marg.
It looks like Joseph could be some sort of a weaver

Thanks Penny, I have no idea what his father's name was. Will have to look into buying his marriage cert.

his birth may not have been registered.
What was his fathers name - purchasing his marriage cert will tell you

Further to the above, Joseph and Jane were married in Blackburn June 1868.

I am working backwards. Trying to find Joseph's birth and any other info. I have him on the census' for 1881,1891,1901. But can't find him or any children in 1871. He was married to Ann Jane Blake (later known as Jane) and in 1881 had the following children:
Annie L age 12
Marget age 11 (I think her name was actually Margaret)
James age 10
George age 6 (My g.grandfather)
Rebecca age 4
John W age 9mths.
Info on any of the above people would be much appreciated.
