I am tracing my mothers side of the family and I got the 1841 census which I found one of the relatives my mothers grandmother but I cannot find where and when she married or died?
Her name was Hannah Tansley,born March 1841 (she was a twin) at Blidworth in Nottinghamshire,her father was Benjamin Tansley who was a Bessom maker. Any ideas where I am going wrong

There is a Hannah Tansley who married George Rawson at Blidworth 2.4. 1866
Is that her?

This is the 1871 entry for that couple but Hannah's birthyear is 1846 and the 1861 shows her parents as Lucke and Elizabeth
