Robert & Ellen Atkinson in Ellel. When and where did they marry?
« on: Tuesday 08 September 15 09:36 BST (UK) »
I had a heck of a brick wall with Robert's son, which I got through eventually.(he was born in Kirkby Lonsdale)
But now I have come up against another brick wall regarding his 2nd marriage to Ellen?
In 1861, Roberts first wife died in February a month or two after the birth of her last child Robert, when the family were living in Ellel. (Hampson).
The 1861 census shows Robert living on his own with his 2 boys. His son Stephen is recorded as a visitor with a family named Dixon in Sawrey. No mension of Anne.
Then in 1871 he is recorded as living in Caton with his last 2 sons (David and Robert) and a wife called Ellen, born in Caton. Stephen and Anne are not with them but Stephen is recorded as living as a border with a family called Routledge. No sign of Ann though?
In 1881 census, Robert Ellen and David and Robert are in Skerton.

My brick wall is, who was Ellen I cannot find her birth on Caton/Brookhouse parish registers.
Also, when and where did they marry?
 
Can anyone help please?

Wow that was quick, thankyou.
It is a possibility, Lancaster is the nearest register office to Caton.

There is an Ellen Ianson in Caton for the 1861 census

Willow Mill Cottages
Ellen Ianson age 30, Head, unmarried, Cotton rover, born Caton Lancs
Alice Walker age 16, lodger, unmarried, cotton mill hand, born Yorkshire
Susan Walker, age 31, lodger, unmarried, cotton mill hand, born Yorkshire
RG09/3160/49/16

and in 1851 she is also in Caton with widowed mother Sarah and sister Isabella

Surname may be transcribed Janson, but comparing the initial capital with others on the same page, I would say it was I for Ianson.

 :) Barbara
LANCS:  Greenwood, Greenhalgh, Fishwick, Berry,
CHES/DERBYS:  Vernon
YORKS/LINCS: Watson, Stamford, Bartholomew,

Thankyou for that Barbara, I do appreciate it.
Oooooo, she lived not to far from where I live now! I don't suppose those cottages are still there? Must have a look.  :D
