Are there any witnesses on the marriage cert. One may be from his side of the family.

I'm struggling to find him on an 1841 census at the moment, I'll keep looking.

There are actually 3 extracted entries on igi for a John Gripton born in that area in Staffs, all born to a John and a Mary.

John Gripton baptized 28 October 1805 in Gnosall, Staffs. Father John, mother Mary.
