There are two possibilities one with a father Joshua and one with a father Edward, given there are no Edwards in subsequent line, Joshua seems a reasonable bet.

Cannot find anything obvious, there are two adults in 1800 and one in 1810 but all are located in Scarisbrooke. Did they move to Liverpool, but why wouldn't he be buried at home like Joshua?

Can't fit a burial record.
Two possible marriages
1788 to Ann Hankin, Walton on the Hill
1798 to Jane Barton, Ormskirk but I think this is the Scarisbrooke lot.
But can't find any children or anything to cross reference.

Can't find any marriage, except in 1790 but then her name wouldn't have been Sumner when she witnessed Joshua's marriage, can't find any deaths apart from this one but can't find an associated burial record.
