Hi Alison....


 There is a marriage in Pocklington reg dist. in the last quarter of 1854.

Thank you Tazzie your help is really appreciated,
That is Elizabeth.  In 1861, the daughter, Sarah, is really Sarah Ann HOLT, born 1852 in Hotham, Yks.
I found the following on Robert HOLT and everything seems to fit for him -

Hull Advertiser and Exchange Gazette 28 January 1853
Absconded, from the Parish of Hotham, in the East Riding of the County of York, on the Fifth Day of November last, a Young Manm named ROBERT HOLT, and has left behind him a Wife and One Child. He is Twenty Four Year of Age; stands Five Feet Six Inches and a half high; Dark Flaxen Coloured Hair; Ginger Whiskers; Light Blue Eyes; Fair Complexion; a Ring Mark of Blue, pricked round his Third Finger, on his Left Hand; and a Hair Mark on his Arm.  He had on, when left, a short Flannel Jacket, such as Masons wear, Cotton Cord Trousers, Dark Cloth Waistcoat, and a Grey Round Crown'd Hat.  Any Person who shall apprehend the said ROBERT Holt, or bring him to the Overseers of the Poor of the Parish of Hotham, shall have all reasonable Expenses paid them.
Hotham, January 25th, 1853.

Interesting. I can only see a corresponding Robert in 1881 census. I wonder if Elizabeth claimed to be a widow on second marriage.
