I'm trying to find details about the parents, grandparents of Samuel Culpin b.1863 in Sowerby Bridge, Yorkshire. Any information, particular trees would be most welcome. Paul (sister of Gabriella)

Have you found Samuel on the 1871 when, potentially, he would be with his parents. His birth certificate would confirm the names of his parents.
To find if anyone has Samuel is in anyones tree on Genes look at Search/ search members trees.

How did you work back to him? Did he marry? If so, the marriage cert will name his feather - if known, and if he tells the truth

In 1871, he is a visitor in the Dewhirst household. Can’t C&P as I’m on my iPad

Paul/Gabriella -
who did your Samuel marry? I assume you don't have the marriage cert, or you would know his father's name.
From what document are you taking his year of birth?
As Maddie has shown, there were three children named Samuel Culpan born 1862-4, and registered in Halifax reg district.
Yours is not necessarily the one with stepfather William Dewhirst.
|
So it’s likely that the father’s name was ‘dreamed up’ for the marriage…IF we have the right man, in view of the OP’s spelling of his surname
OR - he gave his stepfather's first name! On the marriage cert his father's occupation is given as 'Maker-up' William Dewhirst's occ on 1871 census is 'Wool maker-up'
The birth cert is needed for absolute accuracy
