With that sort of name you need all the help you can get!

Henry and Hannah's marriage certificate will give you the names/occupations of their fathers.  This should make it a little easier to find Henry's birth/baptism/census entries.

Hi All.

If the family Henry and Hannah were here in 1881
RG11/ 4656, Folio 139, Page 49 Yorks

Then this is a possible baptism for Hannah in Brixworth Parish Church.

Pg 64, No. 507

May 26th 1850
Hannah to William and Mary Ann Dickens, Brixworth, Labourer

Hi again.

Looking at the 1851 details that keyboard kindly gave I am not sure
if it is the right family.

Emma aged 20 marries Nathaniel Balderson in 1859.

There is no sign of an illegitimate child to Emma prior to this
or a bastardy bond to link her to Henry.

Obviously a Parish Record look up may confirm, I do not have Spratton's
for that date and it is  not on the cd mentioned above.
