Searching for Joseph Drake in 1841 and 1851 census. Possibly in an outer Huddersfield Area. In 1850 he witnessed the marriage of his daughter Mary Ann Maude to William Shaw at Elland.
Thankyou, Mama

Any idea when/where Joseph and Mary were born. This might help track them down.

Joseph Drake was witness at his daughter's wedding (Mary Ann Maude) in 1850 (Aged 23yrs) so she must have had the first two boys prior to marriage when she was very young. Joseph's occupation was given as Mason
Below is census for 1851
1851-HO107/2295/F234/pg8
Rosemary Lane, Huddersfield

The only birth of Mary Maude (apparently her family name) I could find on LDS in 1827 was Queensbury
The only Joseph Drake I could find were born.

1802 Darfield?
Any help would be wonderful
Thanks,
Mama
