Title: Sarah Hannah Lee, b 1855, Kirk Hammerton, Harrogate
Post by: Kloumann on Sunday 06 December 20 16:03 GMT (UK)

Hitting a problem with Sarah Hannah Lee. Have traced her up to the 1891 census. She is single, age 33,  & living with her parents, James Lee & Catherine.

In 1871 & 1881, she was in service but had a child out of wedlock in 1884, Rochdale

Cannot find her after 1891. Family stories say that she may have married someone called Armitage but cannot find a record. I also cannot find a death for her under her maiden name.

Can anyone fill in the blanks for me please.

Thanks Rosie but I have all that info. It was Sarah Hannah herself that I needed to find.

Thanks Millipede. I think that marriage is the correct one. I think the Armitage name thru me.

But we did not have that information and it helps us when we are looking.  Benjamin was in Leeds and that is where Sarah married  :-\
