The above couple emigrated to the US btw 1866 and 1868 and had 13 children, I think 10 were born in Yorkshire and 3 in Lyons, New York. Findagrave has found some of them in Lyons Rural Cemetery but I'm unsure without any photos whether they are all in the same family especially Prudence E 1858-1941?
Most of the children I can account for but am missing m and d's for John b Q3 1854, Amelia b Q1 1857, Emma b Jan 1861, Mary 'Mattie' bc 1867, Nellie or Ellen Preston who m James P Cornell in 1899 in Kings and Thomas Walter b Feb 1865 who m Anna V or B Johnson 1887 in Kings, the latter were on the 1940 Census living at Seneca, Ontario, New York on a farm.
Obviously Prudence also is a mystery as I'm not sure about her especially as I can find no birth for her prior to their emigration.
Most of the family appear on the 1870 US census at 589, Lyons, Wayne.
Sorry about the length of this post.

I don't think Nellie was married to James Cornell in 1899.

The obit/death notice for Iva J nee Johnson Myers gave her sister as Mrs W E Austin.

Nellie P Johnson married William E Austin 5 February 1890 Lyons New York. Certificate Number   1969. 

1900 census Savannah, Wayne, New York.

William Austin   36
Nellie Austin   30 born NY. Parents England.
Mary Austin   9
Kathryn Austin   7
