Look up please

[Hurley]

Hi, Could anyone look up the marriage of William Lee and Elizabeth Marley married 26.06.1827 in Marske. I would like to know the ages of the bride and groom and any witnesses. Or could anyone point me in the right direction to find this information.

Thanks, Hurley.

Hi Mirf, I have looked at this record but dates don't match. My g grandad was Shiel Bell lee, His father was George Lee 1832 Thornhill Dewsbury. He married Elizabeth Marley in Marske in 1827. I can't find a birth for George Lee born to William and Elizabeth in 1832 Dewsbury. I also couldn't find 1841 or 51 census records for George Lee but found the record you mentioned above which would mean William and Elizabeth married in Marske in 1827 and had William in 1828 but then William disappears and George appears. Could it be a name change? The dates are also different I have William born 1878 in Dewsbury but in the record you mention he is born 1801 which is a big difference. That is why I thought the marriage cert might confirm ages.

The 1841 census rounds ages above 15 down to the nearest 5 so age 40 means 40-44.  50 means 50-54.

Thank's for that Andrea. Still 14 yrs is a big jump in age unless it's a missprint.

Are the generations right?  Your post does not quite make sense.  It is odd for someone born 1778 to not marry until 1827.  Is this Marske in Cleveland as per your other post?    It is a long way from Dewsbury.   Where did you get your information?  I wonder if you have muddled two separate families?
