There are four submitted entries in the IGI for the marriage of Joseph Stubbs on 17 March 1807 at St Marys, Nottingham. One gives no other information, the other three his wife as Harriott Reddish, and two his birth in about 1782 at Nottingham Saint Mary.

There is an entry in the Pallot's Marriage Index for England: 1780 - 1837 for Jos Stubbs and Harriott Reddish in 1807 in Nottingham "Stubbs Jos - Marriott Reddish St Mary's, Nottingham 1807".

There is an entry in the Ancestry Nottinghamshire Registry of Marriages at St. Mary's, Nottingham 1566 to 1813 for Joseph Stubbs and Harriott Reddish on 17 March 1807.

Entry in Ancestry Nottinghamshire, England, Extracted Church of England Parish Records for Joseph Stubbs & Harriott Reddish on 17 March 1807.

In the 1841 census as Joseph Stubs (sic - on the original) aged 55 (rounded down to a multiple of 5), not born in Nottinghamshire, employed as a FWK (frame work knitter) and living with Charlottie Stubs (sic - on the original), was this Harriet or someone else?) and John (son?) in Radford, Nottinghamshire.

On a copy of Entry of Death Number 494 in 1845 in Basford, Nottingham for Harriet Stubbs it states her husband was Joseph Stubbs, a lacemaker. She died in New Basford. Note that a frame work knitter is not the same as a lacemaker - it is knitting stockings and gloves etc.

In the 1851 census as Joseph Stubbs aged 66, born in Snelland (sic - on the original), Derbyshire, widowed, employment given as FWK (frame work knitter), and living with his son (John) in Chapel Steet, Basford, Nottinghamshire.

In the 1861 census as Joseph Stubs aged 82, born in Ashbourn, Derbyshire, widowed, employed as a frame work knitter, and living on his own in Chapel Steet, Basford, Nottinghamshire.

Death of Joseph Stubbs in FreeBMD in October-December 1864 in Basford (7b 67). However the entry in FamilyHistoryOnline Nottinghamshire Burials for Joseph Stubbs gives his burial at Basford St Leodegarius on 16 October 1864 aged 87 putting his birth in 1777. This means he was 30 when he married while his wife was only 16. The birth date of 1781 seems more likely looking at the christenings of his siblings so I have assumed this.

Andrew & Nancy Peel`s Family Tree has an entry for Joseph Stubbs born 11 November 1781, parents William Stubbs and Sarah Cooper, married Harriet Reddish on 17 March 1807, his occupation as a lacemaker and his death in 1864.
