Hi John
The Eli Whiteley who married Fanny Whipps was not Samuel's son Eli born 1783. I think it is very possible that the two families are related but probably back further.
Fanny Whipps family spelt there name with an s on the end although some christenins have this left off. I could not find a christening of a William Whipp 1810 in the same parish as Fanny's.
Also you state your Samuel was the son of Joseph[1713-1803] from Soyland. I had thought your Samuel was the son of Samuel because he was living in Barkisland, was a weaver and his children include Hannah, Elizabeth, John, Mary, Samuel, John and Ely. These names are reflected in your Samuel who had John, Hannah,Joseph, Robert and Eli.
I would be interested in knowing how you have found he is the son of Joseph.
Kind Regards
Karen
