Hi

I am looking for the marriage of my relative Joseph Harvey, who was born in 1836 in Armitage, Staffs to William and Fanny Harvey.

Any info would be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks

Any idea what wife's name was, or if they had any children ?

The IGI has a marriage of Joseph Harvey to ANN HALL 6 October 1857 in Stafford; they had 7 children between 1861 to 1880.   I did not find Joseph at home with mum & dad on 1861 census. 

regards John

Hello,

According to Staffordshirebmd.org.uk the marriage suggested above was in Kingsley(in the north of the county), and Joseph and Ann are there in 1861.

In 1861 there is another JH however in Burntwood, a wheelwright, born Handsacre(which is next to Armitage), with wife Mary from Atherstone Warwickshire.  No children.
The ref for this is RG9/1973 Ed 14 folio 89 p1. He is the right age.

In 1871 the family are in Hamstall Ridware - with 4 children.
Ref RG10/2917 Ed 5 folio 67 p5
Joseph is transcribed with surname Harney to complicate matters.

I hope this does not confuse you.
