There is a marriage for an Abraham Bland in Leeds in 1902, maybe he went back to his roots

Hi,
In 1871 the family are in Sale
John Bland 48 market gardener b Ersholt CORK !!!
Eliza 34 b Barnsley CORK !!!
John 1 b Sale
William 2mths b Sale
Can't read the name of the road I'll leave that to someone else
Sue
Looks like they're still in Washway Road, but at no 130, in 1871

Possible marriages (searching freeBMD for 1850 - 1871):
John BLAND and Eliza ARMSTRONG, June Qtr 1853, Bradford Yorks Vol 9b p46
BUT
there are are at least 3 John Bland entries elsewhere in Yorkshire where his is the only name as yet transcribed on the page.
IGNORE THIS as Manchester Rambler has found something more promising - see below!

John Bland died aged 86 in 1903. (Cheshire BMD)
Abraham's birth is under Abraham Lionel Gilpin, and sister Eliza's full name is Eliza Amy Helena. (Cheshire BMD
The obit Genni found gives (Abraham) Lionel as "son of", rather than "husband of", so he probably died unmarried.

Someone called Malcolm has a Abraham Lionel Gilpin Bland bn 1875 d. 1917 entered on genesreunited!!
Anyone brave enough to contact him? I'm a bit shy 
He doesn't give a birthplace for Abraham so maybe we should contact him in case we can help him with his research
