How have you got back to him please?
How is he related?
Who is your direct ancestor, coming down from him?
Do you know when he was born and who, if anyone, he married?
When and where did he die?
In, short, please tell us EVERYTHING you have on him.
Thanks,
Dea x

Until 1875, there were no penalties for not registering births......his may be one of those not recorded.
Who was his father?
