Thanks all for your input. Some I have already had to dismiss as being a different John, but there are a couple of points I can follow up. Thanks again. x

Buy the marriage cert - if he knew his father, the details will be recorded

'Son in law's wife' definitely suggests that Catherine was John's second wife.

Rowston Ann Sleaford 7a 570

Where does the surname Bee come into the equation? Was Catherine his second wife?

Many thanks, Ann. That first piece of info looks promising!!

John was born in Chapel Hill, Lincolnshire and married Catherine Gadd in 1860. Have found most of the relavant census records, but cannot find out who his parents were, though early census gives Mary Bee as his mother-in-law. There are several John Pattinsons in the area of similar age, but cant find a match good enough to be sure of the parents.
