Joseph Clay

[Ebch]

Found a marriage of a Joseph Clay to a Sarah
Leeds Mercury June 1 1833
Dewsbury - Mr Joseph Clay mercer and draper of that place to Sarah, daughter of Mr Daniel Rhodes merchant of Earlsheaton.
This announcement was also published in the York Herald - suggesting a York link?

(This Sarah died in 1877)

And in June 1868 there was a marriage of James Henry Clay, son of the late Mr Henry Clay of Dewsbury to Elizabeth, daughter of late Mr Benj Bulmer of Boston Spa.  This was published too in Leeds Mercury and York Herald.  So did Joseph Clay have a son James Henry Clay?

I have the George Clay, baptised at St Peter's Church in Huddersfield on 17 Oct 1819, in my tree by marriage.

From the previous posts, the Clay family were from Fartown with the family marrying and their children baptised at St Peter's.

George's wife was from Rastrick (just up the road from Fartown) so I think Dewsbury is just too far away

Thanks once again to all those who have helped me.  It's particularly useful  to me as I don't live in England so am completely reliant on the internet for my information.  I lived in Elland all my childhood and most of my family originate from the Elland, Rastrick, Halifax and Huddersfield areas.

Thanks Philip

The marriage is the last one you list to Susannah Mitchell.  I didn't have the date so I'm grateful for your information.

Now I'm looking for Joseph Clay's parents.

Regards

Irene

Philip, may I please ask for a clarification.

In Reply 2, Sunlaws gave the date of the marriage between Joseph Clay and Susanna Mitchell as 19 Oct 1815.

You have given 19 May 1815 so is Sunlaws' from the IGI and yours from the Parish records?

Thank you
