Joseph was a bricklayer in his youth no doubt working with his father Thomas. They would have moved around wherever the work was available often working away from home.

The first 2 children were baptised at St. John's in Wakefield and (after 1825) the family moved to Sheffield.

Joseph & Ann's first house in Sheffield was at Attercliffe where son George Septimus was born in 1828. Over the next 30 years the building of steelworks and steelworkers houses completely covered the beautiful landscape which had been a scattered agricultural community, now the worst industrial dereliction!

By 1830 Joseph and Ann had moved to the other side of Sheffield where Susanna was born. In July 1837, birth, marriage, and death civil registration began. Abraham became the first of Joseph's offspring to have a birth certificate. Abraham was born on Hermitage Street on the eastern fringe of Sheffield.
