Looking for William & Hannah Dales
« on: Tuesday 16 January 18 15:18 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to find the passenger records and any other information for a William Dales or Dale and his wife Hannah (nee Smith)

They were born in the Hessle area of Hull, Yorkshire UK. Hannah was born around 1808. And died around 1881

It appears that they emigrated to Canada (or the USA) both William and Hannah appear in the Canadian census of 1861.

 A number of my family (from 1819 to the 1860's) have the name  'Smith' as part of their Christian names, including the girls.

I have been given information that Hannah Dales (Smith) may be the connection

I am also researching the William Dales and Hannah Smith line. 
I have found the census records referred to in this thread, as well as
- their names on their son George's death registration
- their names on daughter Sarah's marriage registration
- their names on daughter Ann Maria's marriage registration
I am wondering if William's parents were Thomas Dales and Mary Story and if Hannah's parents were John and Susanna Smith.  That is just a theory at this point so I would love to find some documentation. 
Does anyone have William and Hannah's marriage record?  Were they married in England, or Canada?
