John Herbert Broadbent died 17th August 1936 St Peter Port Guernsey. Most probably only grandchild of Harvey Teasdale.

Bolyna Teasdale. She spelled it Belina was born in 1842 to Harvey and Sarah.She is my great great grandmother. I’m not sure when she came to the USA (Philadelphia Pennsylvania) but in 1870 she had my great grandmother. She married the father Thomas Palmer born around 1836 in England in 1871. In 1873 they had a son William Linley Palmer who died as an infant. Sometime around 1881 she ran off with another man and left her then 11 year old daughter, Sarah, with a neighbor.  Thomas then returned to England. Belina then married John Davis. She died in 1896 of TB and is buried in Magnolia Cemetery in Tacony Philadelphia Pennsylvania. Her grave is unknown because they never entered the lot number in the cemetery book. I believe she is buried with her daughter and son-in-law in the Harris plot.  I came to this conclusion because the grave is for four and one grave is still empty. I would love to connect with any relatives in the UK.

Harvey Teasdale and Sarah Bamforth were married in 1837 but the first birth recorded in the GRO index is in 1842, so earlier children may not have been registered.  The GRO index gives "Cellina", but FreeBMD has Bellina (sic).  I have checked their film of the manuscript index and sent a correction to the GRO.

Cannot find the family in the 1841 census.
Two more children in the GRO index:  Clara 1843, Albert 1845
Any descendants of these two would be relatives.

Two earlier children found.  Variations in spelling of surname and mmn make this family tricky.
Teasdale, Sarah Ann  Bamford              Sheffield 22 435   MarQ 1838
Teasedale, Harvey     Bamforth             Sheffield 22 573   SepQ 1840

No sign of a Harriet(t), which makes me wonder if it was a nickname which became permanent.

And another:
Teardale, Arthur     Bamforth    Sheffield 22 584    SepQ 1839
