*COMPLETED* Joseph Steel marriage and children
« on: Wednesday 17 September 14 19:35 BST (UK) »
Hello

Joseph Steel was born in 1863 in Kirklinton, Cumberland to Jonathan and Elizabeth Steel

This is him and his family in 1871 census in Cumberland

Head   Jonathan Steel   45
Wife   Elizabeth Steel   43
Son   John Steel   19
Daughter   Mary A Steel   13
Son   William Steel   11
Son   Joseph Steel   8
Daughter   Betcy Steel   4

This is Joseph in the 1881 census

Head   Walter Irving   49
Wife   Jane Irving   47
Servant   Joseph Steel   18
Servant   Janet Johnston   17

Apparently Jonathan and Elizabeth died in Roxburghshire, Elizabeth died in 1899 and I think Joseph may have married there.

Could someone please help find a marriage for Joseph and births of any children?

my thanks

If you think the marriage was in Roxburghshire then you should look for it on the Scotlandspeople website. You will need to buy some credits to do the search.

Can I remind you that LindaLily said she had looked for a marriage for Joseph Steel on Scotlands People and had not found one.  So it seems a waste to ask someone else to use credits on something that has been checked already.
