Thomas Robson married Sarah Ann Mills in 1847.

think Henry may have added a few years at marriage to appear of age. Possible 1861 census with father John a fitter

Hmm...

I think, in 1881, this Henry was living with Elizabeth and two children, Elizabeth Ann (aged 15 so probably not his child) and Ellen:

Interestingly, he is a moulder, which is the occupation given on Henry Farrar's marriage record to Mary Gibson.

Could be a coincidence... I will keep looking.

So if it is Henry Farrar he is now in Bradford and has a different wife. Mary then must have died.I still don’t see Alice Farrar or Edward Farrar on a census until after they have married. What an elusive family!
