Neil, you say you visited Greasley Cemetary earlier this year. Well you will have seen that Greasley is not so much a village, just a conglomeration of houses along a main road, with a Church. In fact, it is more of an enumeration area. It covers quite a span of villages, some up to 4/5 miles from the Church itself. So, what I am trying to say is, the family you are looking for, will have lived in one of the surrounding villages.
I see that Hill Top is mentioned in one of the records provided for you. This in itself is about 2/3 miles from the Churchyard.
Imagine what it would have been like all those years ago.

There's quite a gap between the births, but it's feasible. I'll dig a bit more for you.

You need to come back to your thread Neil, and give further details. For instance, where did you get the births and deaths of Joseph and Elizabeth. What was her maiden name, and when were they married. How do you know they were buried in Greasley Church yard. etc.
