I am looking for any information about Jonas White he married? Martha Minton possibly at Shardlow around 1837-8 .They had two daughters born 1839 and 1840 and on both certificates he is named as father, occupation Professor of Music. Martha White appears on the 1841,51,and 61 census and on the 1861 census it definitely state  she is a widow but her death certificate in 1863 states that she is the wife of Jonas White.He does not appear on any census with Martha. I have found a Jonas White in 1861 and 1871 in Yorkshire as a musician.

I am looking for any information on the death of Henry Tanser,he was an engine driver,born in Rugby in 1838,he moved to Long Eaton Derbyshire and was present on th 1881 census. He was still alive in  1887 when he attended his father's death in Rugby.In the 1891 census his wife Emma is still living in Long Eaton but is described as a widow living on her own means.
thanks Liz
