along with sister Rebecca. Looks like both wives were called Hannah. So Hannah West could very well be the first wife. Her marriage banns say she was from the Parish of Everton.

So, the first wife is the one about whom there is a query.

Have you considered that George may have married twice? There's a noticeable gap in ages of the children in 1851

The Simpson (possibly Simmons mis-heard) child in 1851 must have a connection to his wife..

Where is that child in 1841?

Thank-you, I look on our roadmap and couldn't see it.

Kilnhurst - from simple Google search:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilnhurst

Also easily found on Google Maps.
About 5 miles NE of Rotherham.

Will look into it, , drives you a bit sometimes when you can't quite understand it, although i have another ancestor whose surname changed 3 times over 4 census years!

Wonder if maybe she was illegitimate but her mother later married a West

Thank-you. I wonder if she had married before/after?? the parish register definately says Mother formally Simmons, I have looked at the original parish register this morning!!
