Trying to establish which John Hale is father of Joseph 1792-1859 of Little Dean most likely is John baptised 26/6/1768 at English Bicknor or John baptised 29/6/1767 @ Dymock. Has anyone any ideas?

Hello Roger,

Did you ever get a response to this post?

I have a Joseph HALE, born about 1792 and baptized Littledean 5 March 1792, parents John and Hannah (LODGE?) HALE. Joseph marries Lucy HAMPTON, Littledean
15 MAY 1814. I also am struggling with "my" Joseph's Father, John.

Are we looking for the same John? I believe "my" John is deceased by 1841. I believe Hannah, age 76, is listed on the 1841 census living with son William HALE and his family in Littledean.

If John is deceased, there are a couple of possible burials in Littledean - one in 1803 (age 45) and another in 1826 (age 65).

Curious if we are researching the same line.

Sincerely,
