Good morning folks 

I looked at that entry last evening and then just gave up- dejected 
Mainly because, I think and I can't make Ann do anything, I know, but I just wish you (Ann) would give the later birthdate a try and ask for a search and not limit to Dewsbury either.
If nothing turns up- then fair enough but at the moment there is no sign of John H in 1871 but both Hannah and James are there separately and James' other two children are also there without a Wood/Sykes (apparently).
However- now that is off my chest- back to 1871.

The entries seem to indicate that there are three differfent households.
At Ann (Charlesworth) there is //.
Then comes the Drew brothers //.
Then comes George and Kate //.
Then a Hargraves family in the local pub.

PS - although George does have 'married' status - the actual census does look as though there could be 'un' squashed in the previous column, thus making him 'unmarried', together  with 'Son in law' which incidentally is written above 'Head' which has been crossed through

Hi Hey,

 With you on trying to make sense of census and Ann should re try a 3 year search 1871-1873 Dewsbury and Rotherham at her discretion.

Just a thought! George still maybe married status (unlikely though) but Kate could have been his wife at 14 then. OK! If George and Kate Wood are not in the same abode or house as separate entities  Charlesworth family// Drew Brother// George Wood son in law (Of who) and (Kate Wood daughter of who).

Your last post you say both James wood and Hannah Sykes lived in Heckmondwike 1871! I have seen your reply census 1871c with Hannah but NOT seen where James Wood was in 1871c

I never mentioned Heckmondwike in 1871 

This is what I think anyway and have already posted:

1871 RG10; Piece: 4585; Folio: 24; Page: 2
Hannah Sykes b 1848 Batley Carr is a servant in Batley

1871 RG10; Piece: 4564; Folio: 140; Page: 29
James Wood b 1831 widower iron moulder b Rotherham is a lodger in Leeds

I think Libby posted this possibility way back.

So they are not together but do get married within a couple of months

Hi All

While I'm on a runner though wise!

Then no abode of John Henry infant in the 1871c with any direct known relo's also Let assume Hannah is up the swaney spout
with John Henry in 1871 at Batley end (Daddy a Engine tender on the  railway) of Morley Railway Tunnel and James is in some foundry at the other end in Leeds
 prob Kirkstall or Elland Road (Now football ground now) Airdale foundry near the rail line. Thus where would John Henry be born.
