1871 Bradford census request ROWNTREE

[clr1979]

We are having problems tracking Fred Rowntree born Bradford 1849. He should be living with his wife Hannah Maria Rowntree.

Would someone be able to look for either him, or his mother and father.

Father = William Rowntree possibly born in Leeds (dob unknown)
Mother = Hannah Rowntree (nee hopkinson) possibly born in Leeds (dob unknown)

All I know about William and Hannah is that they got married in Dec qtr 1843.

Any help would be great.

Thanks.

Thanks for looking for me.

I dont think it is them. William was 28 in 1843 when he got married which means he would have been born in 1814/15.

Thinking about it though, if they were born in Leeds they may have still been there.

Thanks.

How cool is that???

Just to let you know, I've since found out that Williams Father was Thomas Rowntree born circa 1790.

Just though you might like to know.

Anyone know if Edith Rowntree, b. about 1876 in Leyburn, North Yorkshire, England, father Edward Rowntree, Mother Ann Carter, ever married? I'm trying to track down her descendants to swap family photos.
