Nelsons in Glemsford

Richard Moss, who lives in Tyne and Wear and therefore has difficulty visiting the area for hands-on research, has approached me with this query.

My mother's maiden name is Nelson and I have, I hope, traced her family back
from (i) Greenwich, London to (ii) Glemsford, Suffolk.
However, I've now got stuck at a John Nelson (b 1797) and although I have a possible parents for him - (father William, born abt 1764 and mother Sarah Copsey born about 1767, both of
Glemsford) I'm not sure that is correct.

There I hit a brick wall.

Any help or pointers to circumnavigate that wall will be gratefully received (through me, as usual).
(There is an earlier reference to the Nelsons on this page - link via the title line, above).

I am searching for a William Nelson who was born in 1791 in Glemsford. He married Hannah ? Maiden name and moved to Stoke. He had four children James, Sarah, Caroline, Mary Ann. Sadly he died in 1868 in Stoke. I would like to find information on his parents and if he had any siblings.

Detail:

They had four children: Mary Ann - born 1822, Caroline - born 1827 , James - born 1830, Sarah - born 1832.

Mary Ann had a child called Emily, from the census she didn't marry the father.
EMILY married WILLIAM MASON, they had a child called GEORGE MASON - born 1868. Emily died soon after.

Caroline married DAVID MEERS or MEARS who had a child called ELIZABETH born - 1849

James married ELIZA DAVIES in 1853 moved to West Ham, Essex

If anyone can help with the above names I would be truly grateful.
