Her maiden name was Rushworth and she married James Sidebottom in 1852. She was born in leeds about 1814. I believe she was living in holbeck Yorkshire for most of her life.

Thanks for your help

Do you want to tell us who you are looking for please?

I am looking for Martha Rushworth. Her parents were Joseph and Ann Rushworth. She had a brother Joseph and a Brother Jonathan. I have all the information on Jonathan but can't find out about Martha and Joseph.

I have tried before and this is what I found:

Martha was baptised, Leeds St Peter's 10 march 1813 father Joseph (Linen Weaver), mother Ann

Looks like Martha died? 1847 registered in Hunslet sept quarter wrong because This Martha was married to a Joseph and was aged 52 in 1847

I have nothing on Joseph Rushworth.

Jane

Are you certain that Joseph and Martha on that census are brother and sister and not husband and wife with Joseph's brother Jonathan living with them please?

Martha Illingworth married a Joseph Rushforth in 1837.

If this is the case then Martha would be his sister. Do I have any way of finding out ? ( Sorry I found this under his brother Jonathan's records . I must have put it in the wrong place,)

Jane

Thanks Rootgatherer. I didnt know about William. Apparently there are three others sisters though; Hannah, Constantine and Charlotte.
But I have been unable to confirm this on familysearch.

Jane

This is a possible marriage for his parents Josepn and Ann but if this is correct then they had children outside of marriage.??

his wifes name was ? Ann Holmes they married 6/7/1813 in St Michael and All angels Church Haworth Haworth is in Bradford

Jane

Who did Jonathan marry please?

There is also a possible death for Ann Rushworth in 1939.

Jonathan married Elizabeth Faubert on 6th May 1850.

Joseph the father was dead by 1850.
