I'm looking for Joseph Butterworth b. 1836 Heywood, Lancashire and father Robert Butterworth, possibly mother Mary? on the 1841 if possible. I'm trying to find this for an elderly cousin who has actually paid a "researcher" for not much info. I've found Joseph's baptism on familysearch.org, but have no way of knowing how old Robert may be. Any help much appreciated. Thank you, Margaret.
