yes but cannot find them in any other. thanks vincent

To be certain that you trace the right lines, you need to obtain the marriage cert.........for fathers' names............

So you want look ups for 71 and 61,census for Joseph and Harriet?, and 41 to 61 for John Potter and wife Emma?

Do you have birth or marriage certs for any of them?

I don`t have Ancestry at the moment so can`t help with census except 1881....but theres plenty on here that can .

This looks like James Potters birth reg...Saltney is covered by Great Boughton...this is the only James Potter birth in Great Boughton around that time.
