?.???

Name: Constantine Rushworth
Birth Date: 5 Dec 1812
Parish: Leeds, St Peter
Baptism Date: 7 Mar 1813
Father's Name: Joseph Rushworth
Mother's name: Dorothy Rushworth

I'm not sure that Constantine, Hannah etc are the same family as Joseph and Jonathan. Not even seeing a Martha with the same parents as a Jonathan

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.

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.

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

1841 England Census
about Jonathan Rushworth
Name: Jonathan Rushworth
Age: 15
Estimated birth year: abt 1826

Registration district: Leeds

Household Members: Name Age
Joseph Rushworth 20
Martha Rushworth 25
Jonathan Rushworth 15

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.
