Henry Turner (born circa 1812)

Dear All

I am looking for information on Henry Turner of Leeds a bootmaker turned civil enginer. He was born in Ashover Derbyshire. I have various census entries for him and believe he died between 1881 an 1891 but do not know when or where

Can anyone one help

Thanks
Pete

Hi,

If I am looking at the right family in 1881 RG11/4498  f.65  p.38 Holbeck, Yorkshire then amongst their children are Frederick W and Sarah L.

In 1891 Henry's wife Sarah seems to be living/staying with son Frederick W at RG12/3229  f.107  p.79  Oldham, Lancashire, but her marital status is hard to work out it doesn't quite look like any of the other markings on the page 

I'm hoping she is married because I think this is Henry in 1891 living with daughter Sarah L, transcribed as TURNEY,


1891  RG12/3560  f.14  p.1  Thurstonland, Yorkshire
Tanyard

Henry TURNER  Head  M  79   Living on own means    Derby Ashover
Sarah L            Daur   S  22    Assistant Teacher         Yorks Leeds


Thurstonland was in the Registration District of Huddersfield so this may be Henry's death,

Henry TURNER  age:80  Jun Q  1893  Huddersfield  v.9a  p.199


Henry living in Thurstonland looks good as in 1901 his wife Sarah is living there with her married daughter Sarah L and husband Arthur PONTEFRACT  RG13/4098  f.17  p.8.

Please let me know if you need full details of the censuses I have mentioned.

Thanks, that is excellent, you have the right person. I will follow up your lead.

I obviously missed the Turney ref and read too much into Sarah living with her son.

Thanks again 

Kind regards

Hello my name is Elaine and I am also linked to this family from Henry. My link is through his son James Yates Turner. I hope either Pete or Daisy are still interested in exchanging some info.
Look forward to talking to you.

Hi Elaine,

Welcome to RootsChat 

I am not linked to this family, I was just helping Pete with his research. Unfortunately it doesn't look like he has used this site since 2012 but it might be worth sending him a PM (personal message) and if he's still using the same email address he will get a notification that there is a message for him.

To send a PM click on the page icon underneath Pete's name.
