Abraham Oughton b Ireland /Rose Hannah Harris - Leeds 1891/ 1901

[Robincrook]

I am trying to help a friend who is in need of some help to establish the marriage of a Abraham Oughton to a Rose Hannah Harris (there may be variation on the Christian names of Rose Hannah). Particularly interested in Rose Hannah's origins. In 1891 they were living with Abraham's brother Samuel in Leeds. I dont have the details but Rose's age is given then as 30. Still in Leeds in 1901 Abraham is given as aged 39. Abraham I believe originated from Ireland. They had a son called Fred. Some talk of them going to America at some point but its a bit sketchy. Anything you can come up with on this couple would be gratefully appreciated. Many Thanks. Gordon

The census info would be useful. Would really like to find Rose before 1891 its been a bit of a problem finding her if anyone can find her it would be brilliant. Thanks all for the info so far has cleared up Abraham so he did not go to America.

Hi Abraham,

I am sorry we have been unable to pass on your message to Robincrook, sadly his email address is not working and we have been unable to find him. 

Lets hope he comes across this post and gets intouch.

Regards

Sarah
