    Notes:

    ** CANNOT find a record of his christening anywhere!

    According to census information he was born in 1816 at Longworth.
    Could this mean he was not the child of William and Dorothy.
    It could mean the parish records were incomplete or damaged.

    for his marriage, there is a typo in the records as he is recorded as Albert.
    No online searches reveal any christening dates for either name, nor do the parish records.

    ** It might be worth looking for some Mason Guild records to see if we can verify this and add any flesh to to the story. Paul Barrett 05 Aug 2017

    Married:
    Need to check this marriage date. Don't know where it came from but there is a son born 6 years earlier. Was this William's 2nd marriage? Or is the marriage date wrong?

    Update. The date is 1812,. We believe the 1822 date was a typo.
