Oh, thankyou so much Kate - I've been trapped on the phone for an hour, sorry.
Oh dear, what to make of post #37, Robert Holden b WEETON - surely not a misspelling for Wheelton!
However, the James Holden above who married Alice Longworth in 1850, his father Robert Holding, can't be the one who married Ruth Patefield, as he married her in 1849 and she died in 1856. So that does seem to leave Ruth Patefield in the running after all.
