Assuming that the James Schofield/Hannah Greenough marriage is the correct one, and I don't doubt it, then James had been married previously and his father's name was Charles.

Very strange that the Find A Grave entry gives James' first wife as Jane Ackroyd.  I can't find any marriage between those two names BUT I can find a Schofield/Akeroyd marriage in Batley -

30 March 1891 - James Schofield, 24, Miner.  Father - Charles, Cutter and Zilpha Akeroyd, 20, Weaver.  Father - Joseph.

Zilpha Schofield dies March quarter 1909, aged 35 - Barnsley Registration District.  Age is slightly out, I know  :-\

Thank you BumbleBee.  The entry was done by James's granddaughter from the second marriage to Hannah so I would think it is correct, but Zilpah may have been known as Jane I suppose?

I'm just looking at whether Hannah could have been buried with her family, the Greenhough's.

Yes, I did see that marriage entry (James and Hannah).

I've just spotted something - related to the grave at Batley:

Charles Schofield is buried 20 March 1915, aged 18 months.  Death registration March quarter 1915, Dewsbury, page 910 aged 1 (GRO new facility gives age as 18, same page number, which I believe can be interpreted as 18 months).  Birth registration for Charles Schofield, Dewsbury Registration District, December quarter 1913 - mother's maiden name is Ackroyd.

So my James Schofield/Zilpha Akeroyd marriage is possibly a red-herring, as Zilpha died in 1909  :-[

I did wonder about that entry for Charles mmn AKEROYD edit should be ACKROYD
as she'd died 1909
J & Z's children 1901 census  named Jane E & Cecil and these are their birth entries

Jane Eliza SCHOFIELD mmn AKEROYD

Cecil SCHOFIELD mmn AKEROYD

Just thought I check something out on GRO indexes

Do you think they have the correct age for death of Charles Schofield in 1915?

there's this entry is he 18 months or 18 years  :-\

Charles SCHOFIELD     18     
1915  M Quarter in DEWSBURY  Volume 09B  Page 910

ADDED

just checked FreeBMD it gives his age as 1

Exactly  ;)  And then we've got the Akeroyd vs Ackroyd question.

Zilpha marries as Akeroyd and Jane Eliza and Cecil birth registrations also give the surname as Akeroyd.

Charles' birth registration in 1915 states Ackroyd!!
