Hello Ticker,
Thank you for your response.
No joy for 1841 Hull area, think I need to look Nottingham/Derbyshire area's, still looking for details of William's siblings, first marriage etc.,
although I have made some progress. William's father was George.
William re married in 1866 (in  Hull ) to Jane Sefton (nee Spinks) (also  widowed)
In 1861 Jane, her ex husband and children lived in Deptford.
Thank you again
Regards

Hi xstitcher

My Great-great grandfather was George Edward Sefton.   As you have found he is listed in 1881 living with the Coupe family and his birthplace is listed in Goole.  In 1901 he is living with his wife and family in Hull and his birthplace is listed as Surrey, Deptford.  I am quite new to this and haven't got to the bottom of his place of birth yet.

I have some photos of him which I would be happy to share if you are interested.  The family story goes that his father was a doctor in London but died when he was young and his mother remarried.  A doctor in the family seems a bit fanciful!? and when I got George's marriage certificate (1888) his father is listed as William Sefton (deceased), ship carpenter.  One of the witnesses at the marriage is Elizabeth Coupe.

I would be interested to know which siblings are listed in the 1861 census and also who is listed as Jane Sefton's (nee Spinks) father and his occupation on the marriage certificate if possible.

Any information is gratefully received!

Best Wishes
Jo
