Title: Henry Hall / Hannah Fieldhouse
Post by: forte on Saturday 23 July 11 17:34 BST (UK)

I am trying to find a marriage for Henry Hall b abt 1823 in Sheffield to Hannah Fieldhouse b abt 1820 in Kirkstall Leeds (or Hunslet)    I think they both lived in the Hunslet area in  1841 then moved to Nottinghamshire where they are living with 3 children in 1851.

I believe they would have married about 1844/5 as their first child Henry was born in 1846, the second Hansom in 1847 and Emily in 1850.

I desperately need to find this marriage so I can get the name of Henry's father to help me progress (or is that move back?).

If anyone has any info it would be greatly appreciated.

I also have a Birth Certificate which anyone interested can have.  It is of Henry Hall son of George Prince Hall and Ellen Hall(nee Halstead) b 18/1/1846 Leeds West.  I thought it was Henry the son of Henry and Hannah and ordered it erroneously.

Can't find a marriage, but there are two baptisms in Sheffield that would fit.
Birth 9 Nov. 1821, bap. 17 Feb. 1872. Parents John & Mary. Father was a cutler.
Birth 20 Jan. 1823, bap. 2 Mar. 1823. Parents John & Sarah. Again father was a cutler!

Thanks for your time in looking up these births.  I think Henry's father was a Mason (definitely was in 1851 when his brother James married).  I have this certificate but unfortunately it does not give the father's Christian name.  I don't know yet of any other siblings but I'm sure time will reveal all.

Again thanks for your help and I'll have a closer look at the info you have found.
