Hi
I'm struggling to find a Marriage between Benjamin Perry born 1849 in High Green & Mortomley, Yorkshire and a Harriet ?? born 1856 in York. Any help would be much appreciated.
This is what I've got so far:
On the 1891 census he was 42, a Coal Miner and living in High Green & Mortomley, Yorkshire as a Boarder with Harriet ( 35 ) Head, 3 sons Thomas ( 17 ) a Coal Miner : possibly Harriet's son from another marriage as there's a big age difference, Harry ( 6 ) a Scholar, Arthur ( 4 ) a Scholar + 3 nephews Chapman ( 15 ) a Coal Miner, William ( 9 ) a Scholar and Ernest ( 7 ) a Scholar. The nephew's were living with them as their father James Perry ( 1851 ) was in the Wortley Union Workhouse and their mother Jane Ann Chapman ( 1852 ) there's no record.
On the 1901 census he was living 52, a Green Grocer and living in High Green & Mortomley, Yorkshire with his wife Harriet ( 45 ) , 2 sons Harry ( 16 ) a Pony Driver Pit, Arthur ( 14 ) Apprentice ? and 3 nephews Geo Chapman ( 26 ) a Coal ? , William ( 19 ) ? Coal Pit and Ernest ( 16 ) a Pony Driver. The nephew's were living with them as their father James Perry ( 1851 ) was in the Wortley Union Workhouse on the 1891 census and died in 1892 and their mother Jane Ann Chapman ( 1852 ) there's no record on the 1891 census.
