A little bit of a distance, but possible?

Given censuses suggest the mother Maud was born in Gibraltar, is it possible they married overseas?

Durham / Re: Sarah Jane Harrison
« on: Monday 18 August 25 08:44 BST (UK) »If William Houston was married before is it possible then that he did not marry Sarah? Or did he divorce Ruth? And is it likely rather than dying in 1894 as I previously had assumed he actually did another runner with someone else?
I don;t think he divorced Ruth - it was fairly unusual in those days. Both Sarah and Ruth describe themselves as married in 1891 and widowed in 1901

Think you might be right about William being married previously.
There's a William Ouston b c1861 in Houghton le Spring living in Chester le Street in 1881 with wife Ruth
Ruth is on her own with three girls in 1891 - the youngest is 6, which fits with him going off with Sarah and them having a 5 year old on 1891

Some further digging identified that Mary's maiden name was Eccleston so indeed I may be on the wrong track

Yorkshire (North Riding) / Re: Grace Hustler/Hostler or Dodsworth - Thornton Dale
« on: Saturday 16 August 25 20:09 BST (UK) »Not sure if this helps but if you look at the marriages on the same page for 1798 and the right hand
page a John Hustler/Hustlar is a witness to 3 marriages.
Perhaps they are related, although he does not witness Grace's marriage. They were John Hodgson and John Mann.
There's a John Hustler buried Thornton Dale 17 Nov 1802 age 77. He's noted as late parish clerk, which might explain his regular appearance as a witness

Four other Benjamin’s on 1871 census born 1825-1845 but in 1851 only two, the above and this strange one below, GRO birth name may be Payne?

Colin
Looks like his surname was Pink - stepfather is Knowlton, married Jane Pink in 1847
