My theory is that the two Davids are the same person and that the second Joseph is from his first marriage.

From another source I have discovered that (one) David lived at Birtles Hall Farm and that he died on 11 Feb 1885

Who was Sarah?

Is my theory correct? - having just discovered that David & Elizabeth had another son, Abraham, born in 1858, it seems that this theory has been disproved


Other surnames in these two families are:

Taylor, Lomas, Higginbotham, Gosling, Genders, Barker and Tomlinson
