Thank you all for your contributions, especially the many from Softly,softly. Interesting to see John was a commercial traveller. He later worked for Patent medicine wholesalers, Bolton, Blanchard & Co. and later Raimes, Blanchard & Co. who worked from Leith Walk. (perhaps only joining the firm after the marriage?) I think John and Jane's wedding was in Leith because of the Blanchard Raimes connection. Great also to have more info about John's parents. Sadly he died in Jan. 1854 in York leaving Jane with 4 young children. The Bolton's were living/working from New Bridge Street and Micklegate in York. I am very grateful for all your help - it has been tricky trying to find out about John Bolton. Maribel
