FHL Film Number: 0560880 (RG4 1038)Death Notes
Died after 21 Dec 1834 and before 1841
John must have died an infant or young boy, possibly soon after Ralph was born, as John was missing from the 1841 census, and another John (born 1843) was in the family by 1851. It is often the case that the next child to be born (of the same sex) is named after the child most recently died.
This record for Newbent Chapel, Leigh may be wrong but the family did stop using Edgworth Independent after Ralph was baptised in May 1835, so may have moved to find work (labouring and farming). Also, its Presbyterian and the age at death is perfect.
