Ellen Hughes, 21.  Father:  John, Quarryman.
Witnesses:  William Hughes and Emma Hughes.
Levi, Ellen and Emma all made their mark.

Also, as you obviously live in the Leicestershire area (visiting Shepshed today  ), you might like to know that Leicestershire Parish Records are now on-line at FindMyPast.  I think that a lot of Libraries in Leicestershire will have access to these records.

Thanks very much for coming back on this this lady who spoke to mum there said she thought there was some sort of connection from her side to my mums side of the family like she said my aunt Harriet was sibson before she became cooper ,she side that she called her Levi and Ellen Wakefield grandma and grandad .so I said I would try and find out why she called them this is there any thing between sibson and Wakefield.

Amy Cooper - parents Joseph (Blacksmith) and Mary Ellen was baptised 28 December 1902 - Markfield.

From FreeBMD I found Walter Cooper and Harriet E Sibson married June quarter 1946 - Market Bosworth Registration District.

There is no sign of a marriage between Sibson and Wakefield - 1880 to 1950.
