Post by: Withernsea on Tuesday 10 May 11 22:51 BST (UK)

My gt gt Grandmother was a Jane ROBINSON whose father was John ROBINSON.
1st Marriage-Source-Copy of  1840 Marriage certificate. Parish Church of Pontefract.  Jane Robinson -Spinster Full age (Made mark) Residence- Pontefract. Yks. Father-John Robinson, Waterman.  Witnesses-John Hamshaw and William Whitehead

This is a most likely baptism- 3 Feb 1821 Knottingley/St Botolph Parish Registers, West Riding of Yorkshire.
Jane ROBINSON, father John, occupation waterman, mother Sarah,3-Feb 1821

Knottingley Par Reg Marriage Index - John Robinson OTP and Sarah Pulman OTP married 20 Feb 1814

It seems likely that Jane had an older brother, Thomas b ca 1816 and a sister Mary Anne b ca 1818.

If anyone has any connection to this family please drop me a line.
