Isn't Joseph supposed to be born about 1833-4?

This looks to be his family in 1841:

If you check the GRO indexes for the children of Joseph and Mary Whalley, her maiden name is given as Peet, not Pink.
In 1851 there is a Mary Peet dau of George Peet b Orrell about 1838, so her details do match those of Mary Whalley, but not the marriage Allan found. Having said that, I can't see a marriage between Mary Peet and Joseph Whalley, so perhaps she is a red herring?

This looks to be Joseph's baptism on ancestry:
https://www.ancestry.co.uk/interacti...=successSource Rainford Bishop's Transcripts: Born 28 Apr 1833, baptised 26 May 1833, Joseph, son of John and Mary Whalley of Rainford, father's occupation husbandman. |

Mary Pink seems to have been illegitimate as there are no father's details for her on her marriage to Joseph, so maybe one of her parents was a Peet and one a Pink?

Yes, could be. The Pink marriage fits in all other ways...…..

Thanks that s great , I think I know the lane in Rainford . That ticks the box , it's a strange thing regarding Mary pink , I thought it said he was a widower , on the online parish clerk . Could he have been married before and his first wife died ? And then he married Mary pink . It's a thought .

I think this is his first marriage:
https://www.ancestry.co.uk/interacti...nSearchResults I thought I recognised the bride's name and that we had looked at it before, but maybe not? 12 Nov 1855 Wigan All Saints, Joseph Whalley 22 bachelor labourer, residence Upholland, father John Whalley labourer, and Nancy Bibby 26 spinster, residence Upholland, father William Bibby nail maker. Then there is a Nancy Whalley death Jan-Mar 1857 Pemberton sub-district, age 29. |

I'm wondering if seven-year-old Ellen was actually aged one as she is 11 on the next census and there's a birth reg for her, mmn Peet.
