Can I find out more about Rosannah Hunt?

[Davedrave]

In 1884 Charles Greenough of The Green, Belgrave (Leicester) was in court for an assault on his brother-in-law, Thomas Light. In 1881 he was living on The Green with wife Rose. Rose must therefore presumably have been the sister of Thomas’s wife Sarah (nee Hunt). Her age agrees with the age of Rosannah Hunt born 1841 in Leicester. The last I know of Rosannah as Hunt is in the 1861 Census.

I can’t find a marriage of Rosannah and Charles, can’t see her in 1871, or see him before 1881. (Unfortunately the 1881 Census has birthplace unknown). I wonder if someone more skilful than me can help?

A Charles Greenhough married Roseanna Hunt on 9th April 1866 in Birmingham, Warwickshire. Both aged 23. Charles' father is stated as James Greenhough, shoemaker, and Roseanna's is William Hunt, hawker.

can’t see her in 1871

The family is enumerated under 'Greeney' on Ancestry. Charles' birth place is Uttoxeter. Quite easy to find Charles on the earlier censuses with this birth place.

Many thanks for your help. I’d had the 1881 Census record of Belgrave for a long time with Charles and Rose on it because they were next door to Rose’s brother William, but until I found the court today I hadn’t realised who they were. You have now illuminated their history for me.
