Any census prior to 1891, BMD, whatever(W. Riding)Robert Jones
« on: Wednesday 28 February 07 14:28 GMT (UK) »
Robert Jones is the full name.  Info on his marriage cert...

married March 31, 1882 to Sarah Helen Kershaw, widow, age: full (maiden name Holt), father Joseph Holt (occ. mechanic).

Robert, widower, age: full, occ. Gas Engineer, residence, Dewsbury, father Robert Jones (occ. Lawyer).

It was a licensed marriage, at Church of the Ascension, lower Broughton, Lancashire.

Then I have a birth cert., same Robt & Sarah Jones, a boy named Thomas Hughes Jones(my grandfather), b. Oct. 11, 1882.
Robt's occ., Gas Manager, residence, Gas Works, Savile Town, Thornhill. (Three years later (1885) Sarah married James Rea Gledhill.)

Ultimately my goal is to determine what the familial relationship was between this Robt. & Sir Alfred Lewis Jones (the 19th century Liverpool shipping magnate). There's further info about  this in the 'west riding yorkshire' forum, subject heading- 'The mysterious Robert Jones'

Any info on this Robt Jones will do, any year census, B,M, or D info. (Please keep in mind that Robt apparently died between 1882 & 1885)    THANK YOU!!
