hi ann, thank you , i now know more of the family than before, again thank you, brian,

It looks as though there is a choice of two in 1841..
One is the son of Martin and Hannah and the other has a father called David (no mother listed)

David Parker 50
Thomas Parker 25
Joseph Parker 20
Sarah Parker 15
Nathan Parker 12
Henry Parker 10
David Parker 7

OR......
Martin Parker 50
Hannah Parker 45
John Parker 15
Henry Parker 12
Martin Parker 10

I would get his marriage cert so you can get his fathers name. easier to check on census then

From the IGI
Henry David Parker baptised 21st March 1830, Ossett to David Parker and Sarah Johnson

hi you all, great stuff, thanks , brian,

so pleased that you're pleased!!!
