Find Ancestors

Hi i'm trying to trace my great great grandad William Warrington, i know he was born 1848 in Yeldersley Derby and died 1917 in Biggin near Ashbourne Derbyshire. I know he was married to a Sarah Gould and had several children one being my great grandad John Henry Warrington. HOwever i can't find any trace of his parents in the census. I looked up his birth and it doesn't give his mother's maiden name or full name on the records so i'm stuck. I know he was born in Yeldersley as my great uncle who passed away 2 years ago told me this but he never spoke of it again as he said that he was brought up not to ask about the family.

This is all the information i have sorry i can't be of more help

I don' think that Martha is William's mother. James and Martha may not have married until 1859.
