Notes

Christening of Joseph Foster in the IGI on 16 October 1791 in Bradford, Yorkshire, father John Foster.

Marriage of Joseph foster and Mary Matthewman in the IGI on 15 March 1812 in Saint Peter, Leeds, Yorkshire.

In the 1841 census as Joseph Foster aged 50 (rounded down to a multiple of 5), employed as a clothier and living with Mary (wife?), Joseph (son?), Mary Ann and Naomi (daughters?), and Martha and Ruth Pickard, and George Mathewsman (I assume a relative of his wife) in Low Wortley, Tankersley Yorkshire.

I cannot find an entry in the 1851 census. There are two possible entries in FreeBMD for the death of Joseph Foster between 1841 and 1851 in Hunslet which included Wortley - October-December 1845 (23 182) and July-September 1847 (23 203).
