I think you need to give us more info.  His name would be good and the 1881 census ref too would help us locate him initially.  Sorry see that was in the subject title.

Where does the name Hope come from - one of the children's birth certificates?

There is a family tree with William's parents George b1811 & Ann b1818 but don't know where that came from.

The 1861 census where that William is a blacksmith, but he was born 1841.

I saw that one, doesn't help does it.
He died 1893 aged 49 so his birth is consistent to mid 1840's.

Thanks for all the replies
i believe he was born in warwickshire  . i think wark northumberland was a mistake.
his eldest child Isabella died in 1903 in Warwick  at the Hatton Asylum
Ann Hope's parents were Watson Hope and Elizabeth Liddle.

Without a marriage there's not much anyone can do.
The William to George & Ann disappears after 1861.
Might be him but not enough info at the moment.
