Thank you Reggie, as it is Ripon district, I think it must be the Harry who died in 1907.

Marian - what was Harry's age and occupation from the marriage certificate? Or are you only going from the newspaper announcement?

Hello, I am looking for the above. Margaret Elizabeth Byers was born 1868, near Barnard Castle, Co Durham. Parents Thomas and Rachael. She married Harry Archer on 11 April 1894 as follows - taken from the The Teesdale Mercury -
A yery quiet wedding took place at St. Mary,, Whorlton, on tbe l l th inst by the Rev O A Monk Smith between Harry, eldest son of James Archer, Harrogate, and Margaret Elizabeth (Lilla), eldest daughter of Thomas Harrison Byers, South Thorpe, Winston. I can't find them on the 1901 census or the 1911 census. However, there is a death for a Harry Archer Dec Q 1907 Ripon district but don't know if this is him and on the 1911 census there is a Lila Archer, she seems to have gone by this name, (aged 41 widow) born parish of Barnard Castle, as a housekeeper to a Frederick Smith at The Woodlands, Skipton. Her father dies 1914 but she is not listed as being among the mourners. There is a Margaret E Archer died June Q 1934 Knaresbrough district but age slightly out. Thank you.
