Adam Swift (b. 1838), youngest son of William Swift and Mary Ann Lister, married Eliza Taylor (b. 1841 in Southwark St Saviour), daughter of Henry Taylor and Mary Wright, on 30 Oct 1859 at the Parish church of St John the Evangelist, Goole.

Adam and Eliza had at least eight children, but only one survived: 

1. Henry Swift b. 1860 D Quarter in GOOLE UNION Volume 09C Page 495, bap. 7 Oct 1860 in Goole, Yorkshire. It appears this child died, aged 8, in 1869 M Quarter in KIRKSTALL Volume 09B Page 178.
2. William Swift b. 1864 D Quarter in BRAMLEY UNION Volume 09B Page 331, died in 1865 J Quarter in BRAMLEY UNION Volume 09B Page 228.
3. Anne Swift b. 1866 M Quarter in BRAMLEY UNION Volume 09B Page 368, died aged 6 in 1872 D Quarter in LEEDS Volume 09B Page 272
4. Mary Swift b. 1867 D Quarter in BRAMLEY Volume 09B Page 345, died aged 5 in 1872 D Quarter in LEEDS Volume 09B Page 275
5. Joseph Swift b. 1869 D Quarter in LEEDS Volume 09B Page 506, died aged 1, in 1870 D Quarter in LEEDS Volume 09B Page 375.
6. Rebecca Swift, b. 1871 M Quarter in LEEDS Volume 09B Page 544, died aged 2, in 1873 D Quarter in LEEDS Volume 09B Page 297.
7. Walter Swift, b. 1873 S Quarter in LEEDS Volume 09B Page 410
8. Alfred Swift, b. 1874 D Quarter in LEEDS Volume 09B Page 456, died before his 1st birthday, in 1875 D Quarter in LEEDS Volume 09B Page 293.

In 1861, Adam Swift (23) Cast Iron Moulder, was a lodger in Gosford Street, Stockton, County Durham, while his wife, Eliza Swift (19) was staying with her parents - her father Henry Taylor (52), was also an Iron Moulder - in Cottingham Terrace, Sculcoates. Grandson Henry Swift (0) was also listed.

In 1871, living in Aberdeen Street, Headingley cum Burley, Leeds, were Adam Swift (33) Iron Founder, were wife Eliza (29), Ann Swift (5), Mary Swift (3) and Rebecca Swift (0), as well as Adam's widowed mother, Mary Ann Swift (68).

In 1881, Adam Swift (43) Iron Moulder, Eliza Swift (39) and Walter Swift (7), were living at 70, Hodgson Street, Sutton and Stoneferry, Sculcoates.

However, they must have moved again, because Eliza Swift died the following year, aged 41, in 1882 D Quarter in WANDSWORTH Volume 01D Page 424.

Two years later, in 1884, Adam Swift remarried, in Wandsworth, to Jane Green.

In 1891, Adam Swift (53) Iron Moulder, wife Jane Swift (49) and son Walter Swift (17) were living in Chesney Street, Battersea / Wandsworth.

Then, shortly afterwards, Adam Swift died, aged 53, in 1891 J Quarter in LAMBETH Volume 01D  Page 268. Adam Swift was buried, on 3 Jun 1891, at Brompton Cemetery (Plot: B, 84.0, 154.0) in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. Adam's second wife, Jane, lists herself as born in Chelsea, which would appear to the the link that brought him to such a resting place.

In 1911, Jane Swift (70) Widow, was living in the household of Walter Kempsell (53) Carpenter. (Her daughter, Jane Green, was Walter Kempsell' wife.)

In 1921, Jane Swift (80) was still living in Walter Kempsell's household, this time correctly listed as the mother-in-law.

Jane Swift died, aged 83, in 1924 S Qtr in CROYDON Vol 02A Page 306.

John Hatcliffe and Elizabeth Bratley

St Peter's Church, Asterby

John Hatcliffe (bap. 26 Feb 1786, in Asterby), son of Joseph and Mary Hatcliffe, married Elizabeth Bratley (bap. 2 Mar 1794 in Baumber), daughter of David and Margaret Bratley, on 27 Oct 1812, at St Peter's Church, Asterby, Lincolnshire. In fact, the marriage record lists her as Elizabeth Brattlea, but it's close enough!

The following ten children look likely to be theirs: 

1. Mary Hatcliffe bap. 1813 in Market Stainton, Lincolnshire
2. William Hatcliffe bap. 11 Jan 1815 in Panton, Lincolnshire
3. Jane Hatcliffe bap. 18 Mar 1817 in Panton, Lincolnshire
4. John Hatcliffe bap. 24 Sep 1820 in Panton, Lincolnshire
5. David Hatcliffe bap. 7 Oct 1821 in Panton, Lincolnshire
6. Amos Hatcliffe bap. 20 Oct 1823 at St Peter's Church, Asterby
7. Helvin Hatcliffe bap. 11 Apr 1825 at St Peter's Church, Asterby
8. Saul Hatcliffe bap. 26 Dec 1829 at St Peter's Church, Asterby
9. Job Hatcliffe bap. 25 Sep 1831 at St Peter's Church, Asterby
10. Barnabas Hatcliffe bap. 11 Aug 1833. Barney Hatcliffe died aged 3, and was buried on 7 Mar 1836, both events at St Peter's Church, Asterby

i. Makes sense as Market Stainton is only 4 miles from Baumber.

In 1841, living in Asterby, Lincolnshire, were John Hatcliffe (55) Agricultural Labourer, Elizabeth Hatcliffe (45), with sons John (20), Saul (11) and Job (9). 

John Hatcliffe died, at 66, and was buried, on 16 Feb 1851 at St Peter's, Asterby.

In 1861, Elizabeth Hatcliffe (68) Widow, Pauper, born in Baumber, Lincolnshire, was living in Butt Lane, Asterby and she was still there at 78, in 1871.

Elizabeth Hatcliffe died, at 84, and was buried on 20 Feb 1877 at St Peter's, Asterby.

(Potential Issue: Although mine is not the only research to have come to the same conclusions (via), it would appear from DNA that this may not be the right marriage. Whilst there are (at time of writing) 18 DNA links to John Hatcliffe, there are exactly ZERO to Elizabeth Bratley. One would expect the number to be equal.)

James Redmore and Mary Wilkinson

Hull Holy Trinity Church (Hull Minster)

James Redmore (b. 1784), son of George Redmore and Ann Andrew, married Mary Wilkinson of Sculcoates, Spinster, at Hull Holy Trinity on 25 Oct 1809. One of the witnesses was an Ann Redmore. Mary Wilkinson b. 15 Dec 1781 and baptised on 3 Feb 1782 in Bingley, Yorkshire, was the daughter of John Wilkinson of Beckfoot (Bradford), Tanner. Unfortunately the record doesn't name her mother.

James and Mary had six children:

1. William Redmore bap. 8 Jul 1811 in Sculcoates
2. Ann Redmore b. 2 Oct 1813, bap. 28 Mar 1815 at Hull Holy Trinity. Ann's baptism record lists her father's occupation as Joiner and the family's residence at that time as Upper Union Street, Hull.
3. Thomas Redmore b. 30 Oct 1815, bap. 27 Nov 1815 at Hull Holy Trinity. The baptism initially listed the child as son of James Redmore, Joiner and Ann, however, there is a note on the original record stating that it should have said Mary and there is a declaration signed by Mary Redmore with the original record. At this time, the family lived in [Great] Passage Street.
4. James Andrew Redmore bap. 3 May 1818 at Sutton on Hull
5. Henry Redmore b. 29 Aug 1820 (no baptism record found)
6. Jonathan Wilkinson Redmore bap. 2 Mar 1823 at Sutton on Hull

In 1841, James Redmore, and Mary Redmore, with both of their ages listed as 55, were living in Cleveland Street, Sutton, Sculcoates with their two youngest sons, Henry Redmore (20) and Jonathan Redmore (15) still living at home.

During the Victorian era, the population of Hull exploded from about 22,000 people in 1801, to more than 291,000 in 1914. It is hardly surprising that housing was a major issue and many slum areas sprang up. Among the most notorious was The Groves in east Hull, a riverside community of mills and cramped terraces along Cleveland Street. It was a filthy place: according to a report in the Hull News in 1879, muckgarths (sic) drained into the tidal Sutton Drain (since filled in), which at low tide was lined with “black, putrid matter". - Hull Live on the forgotten lost suburbs of Hull

Mary Wilkinson died, aged 65, in 1847 D Quarter in SCULCOATES Volume 22 Page 408 and was buried at Sculcoates, All Saints & St Mary's on 24 Oct 1847.

In 1851, James Redmoor (sic) (66) Widower, Joiner Journeyman from Binbrook, Lincolnshire, was living in the household of George King (37) at 9, Alice Place, Sculcoates. (George King was married to daughter, Ann Redmore.)

James Redmore died, at 74, on 22 Jun 1858 (1858 J Quarter in SCULCOATES Volume 09D Page 107) with probate granted on 7 Jul 1858 to George King.

• George King married Ann Redmore on 30 Jan 1837 in the parish of All Saints, Sculcoates. The couple don't appear to have any children. In 1851, George King (37) Cooper journeyman from Hull was living at 9, Alice Place, Sculcoates with Ann King (37), father-in-law, James Redmoor (sic) (66) and Mary Ann Maulson (13) Niece. In 1861, George and Ann King, both 47, were living at 27, Green Lane, Sculcoates. In 1871, in Green Lane, Sculcoates, were George and Annie King, both 57, with Mary J Redmore (22) and Annie Redmore (14), Nieces. (They were the daughters of Jonathan Wilkinson Redmore.) And in 1881, at 9, Green Lane, Sculcoates, George King (67) Master Cooper; Ann King (57), with their nieces, Mary J Redmore (32) Domestic Servant and Annie Redmore (24) Mantle Maker, still living with them. George King died at 73 in 1886 D Quarter in SCULCOATES Volume 09D Page 136 and was buried on Christmas Eve, 24 Dec 1886 at Sculcoates, All Saints & St Mary's. In 1891, Ann King (77) Living on her own means, was still at 9, Green Lane, Sculcoates with her niece, Mary J Redmore (42) General Domestic Servant. Ann King (née Redmore) died, aged 93, in 1907 J Quarter in SCULCOATES Volume 09D Page 125.
• Thomas Redmore, Joiner, married Jane Coates on 24 Jan 1843 at the parish church of St James, Sutton on Hull. Thomas' brother, James Andrew Redmore was one of the witnesses at this marriage. Jane Lawson Coates (bap. 8 Mar 1813 at All Saints, Sculcoates) was the daughter of James Coates, Tailor and Jane Lozer. There is no evidence that this couple had any children either. The only census they appear on is in 1871, when Thomas Redmore (55) made his 'Income from Houses' is at Cottingham Terrace, Sculcoates. The record also notes that Thomas was 'Blind, not from birth' (which during this era was often caused by Smallpox). Living with him were Jane Redmore (56) and Elizabeth Tanouary (62) Wife's Sister. Thomas Redmore, Joiner, of 8 Cottingham Terrace Drain Side, died, aged 56, on 24 Jul 1872 (1872 S Quarter in SCULCOATES Volume 09D Page 138) and was buried, on 28 Jul 1872 at Hull General Cemetery. Cause of death was listed as 'Gastric Fever' (which then was likely Typhoid fever). He left his effects to his widow, Jane Redmore. In 1881, Jane Redmore (68) Widow, Annuitant, was still living at 8, Cottingham Terrace, Sculcoates. Living with her was Elizabeth Parman (70) Lodger. Jane Redmore died, aged 72, in 1885 S Quarter in SCULCOATES Volume 09D Page 117.
• James Andrew Redmore, Carpenter of Todds Lane, Northampton (in 1851, the upper part of Grafton Street was called Todd's Lane), married Mary Ann Stearn (bap. 30 Jul 1820 in Grantchester, Cambridgeshire), daughter of Thomas Stearn and Ann Hammond, on Boxing Day, 26 Dec 1844, at Holy Trinity Church, Cambridge. The couple had two sons and a daughter: i. George Henry Redmore b. 1845 D Quarter in CAMBRIDGE Volume 14 Page 13, died, aged 2 in 1848 J Quarter in LAMBETH Volume 04 Page 236 and was buried at St John the Evangelist, Waterloo (St John's Church, Waterloo). The family's address was Belvedere Road. ii. William Edmund Redmore b. 1848 M Quarter in LAMBETH Volume 04 Page 339, died, at 13 months, in 1849 M Quarter in LAMBETH Volume 04 Page 267 and was also buried at St John the Evangelist, Waterloo. This time the family's address was listed as 7 Edward Street, Lambeth, Surrey. iii. Emma Redmore b. 1849 D Quarter in LAMBETH Volume 04 Page 341, bap. 17 Feb 1850 in Lambeth with parents listed as James Andrew and Mary Ann Redmore. But then James Andrew Redmore died, aged 32, in 1850 S Quarter in CAMBRIDGE Volume 14 Page 7 and was buried on 31 Jul 1850 at the Church of St Andrew and St Mary, Grantchester. In 1851, Mary Ann Redmore (30) Widow, Lodging house keeper was living in Coronation Street, Saint Andrew the Less, Cambridge with E Redmore (1) daughter and three (presumably paying) visitors. In 1855, Mary Ann Redmore remarried to Thomas Wilson, again in Cambridge. In 1861, living at 90, Russell Street, Cambridge, were Thomas Wilson (34) Railway Guard born in Edinburgh, Midlothian, Scotland; Mary A Wilson (40) and Emma Redman (sic) (11) Daughter, born in Lambeth, Surrey. Haven't found any further records.

[NB: Four separate people's DNA results (at time of writing) show that James Redmore and Mary Wilkinson are common ancestors with those people, who are cousins through various descendants of Jonathan Wilkinson Redmore. As those are cousins, this confirms that the link has to be through Henry Redmore.]

John Horner and Mary Ann Clarkson

St George-in-the-East, London E1 - East end

John Horner (bap. 16 Nov 1794 in Impington, Cambridgeshire), son of John Horner and Elizabeth Charles, married Mary Ann Clarkson at St George in the East, on 20 Oct 1816. Mary Ann was a widow at the time of this marriage.

Records do show that John and Mary Ann had five children: 

1. Eliza Horner b. 22 Jun 1817, bap. 20 Jul 1817 in St George in the East Church, Cannon Street Road, Stepney
2. Elizabeth Horner b. 20 Nov 1819, bap. 14 May 1820
3. Samuel Horner b. 13 Apr 1822, bap. 26 May 1822 
4. Sophia Esther Horner b. 30 Jun 1824, bap. 19 Sep 1824 
5. John James Horner b. 27 Jun 1828, bap. 17 Aug 1828

At the time of Eliza's baptism in 1817, John Horner, Shoe Maker, and Mary Ann were listed as living in Terling Street, St George in the East. Elizabeth, Samuel, Sophia Esther and John James' baptisms all took place at St Anne, Limehouse.

In 1841, John Horner (45) was living in Caroline Street, Stepney (which runs down to Shadwell, between Ratcliff and Limehouse). In the household were Samuel Horner (20), John Horner (12), Mary Horner (50), Eliza Dennis (24), Elizabeth Horner (21), Eliza Dennis (15)*, Matilda Dennis (3) and Sophia Horner (17). From this we can only conclude that Eliza Horner had married someone with the surname Dennis, however, I've been unable to find a record of the marriage. For the second Eliza Dennis* to be 15, she would have to have been the daughter of the missing husband by a previous partner of his, though probably more likely is that this is an error in the transcription: perhaps she could have been 5 years old.

In 1851, John Horner (56) Carman (drove a vehicle used to transport goods), birthplace in Over, Cambridgeshire, was living in White Horse Street, Stepney with wife Mary Ann Horner (66) from St Lukes, Middlesex; Sophia Esther Horner (26) born in Limehouse, Middlesex; Eliza Dennis (33) Dress Maker, born in St Georges East, Middlesex, listed as Married - no sign of her husband here nor in 1841 - and granddaughter, Matilda Dennis (13) born in Poplar, Middlesex. "White Horse Street was the main street of the medieval village of Stepney, centred around St Dunstan’s Church. Until the 19th century, although there were buildings along White Horse Street, the surrounding area was mainly open fields." [Source]

On the marriage certificate for son John James Horner to Mary Ann Louisa Howard at the church of St Peter, on 23 Feb 1851, John James occupation is also listed as Carman, while John Horner's occupation is listed as Coal Merchant. Samuel Horner, on subsequent records, was also described as a Coal Porter/Carman. 

In 1861, Mary Ann Horner (76) Widowed, was living in the household of her son-in-law John George Gilpin (married to Elizabeth), in Suffolk Street, Poplar.

John Horner, therefore, must have died between 1851 and 1861, most likely, in 1853, when there is a death of a John Horner with age estimated as 61, in the registration district of St Mary Newington (Southwark). Son Samuel Horner was later found in Camberwell, adding credence to finding him south of the river. 

Mary Ann Horner died at 82, in 1866 in Poplar (Volume 01C Page 839).

Richard Arthur Wall and Hannah Lyne

Clifton Street, Kingston upon Hull
cc-by-sa/2.0 - © Bernard Sharp - geograph.org.uk/p/3751405

Richard Arthur Wall, only child of Richard Wall and Margaret Manning Sawyer, married Hannah Lyne at All Saints Church, Hull on 19 Oct 1893. Richard Wall's occupation is listed as Steward. Hannah's father is listed as John Lyne (deceased), Cab Proprietor. Born Hannah Line, in Bridlington, on 28 Oct 1867, she was the daughter of John Smith Line and Elizabeth Barker. Living with her parents, in 1871, at Lyons Yard, High Street, Bridlington, John Line was listed as a Coachman.

Richard and Hannah had four children:

1. Harry Wall b. 1895 M Quarter in SCULCOATES Volume 09D Page 244, bap. 27 Feb 1895 at All Saints Church, Hull. Died, aged 8, in 1903 J Quarter in SCULCOATES Volume 09D Page 134.
2. Frederick Wall b. 1897 D Quarter in SCULCOATES Volume 09D Page 243, bap. 8 Dec 1897 at All Saints Church, Hull. Died, aged 25, in 1922 D Quarter in ROMFORD Volume 04A Page 474.
3. Margaret Elizabeth Wall b. 13 Dec 1899 D Quarter in SCULCOATES Volume 09D Page 256, bap. 14 Mar 1900 at St. Paul's Church, Hull.
4. Herbert Wall b. 1902 S Quarter in SCULCOATES Volume 09D Page 258, bap. 13 Aug 1902 at St. Paul's Church, Hull. Died, aged 10, in 1912 D Quarter in SCULCOATES Volume 09D Page 298.

On Harry's baptism Richard's occupation is again listed just as Steward, but on Frederick's and Margaret's baptisms, it is the more specific Ship's Steward. This explains why he was not on the 1891 census and isn't on the 1901 and 1911 census returns with the family as presumably he'll have been at sea.

In 1901, Hannah Wall (33) was living at 23, Clifton Street, Hull, Sculcoates, Yorkshire with Harry Wall (6), Frederick Wall (3) and Margaret E Wall (1).

Son, Harry Wall died, in 1903, aged 8.

In 1911, Hannah Wall (43) was living at 59 Blundell St, Hull, Sculcoates with Frederick Wall (13), Margaret Elizabeth Wall (11), Herbert Wall (8) and Florence Pinkney (19) Niece. (In 1881 and 1891, Hannah had lived in the household of Charles Boynton Pinkney, whose wife Emma Barker, was obviously a relative of her mother's.) Richard Arthur Wall is not listed in the household again on the census, but he is listed at that address on the Electoral Register for that year.

Son, Herbert Wall died, in 1912, aged 10.

In 1921, Richard Arthur Wall (56) Stocktaker, Hannah Wall (53) and Frederick Wall (23) were living at 12, Stafford Street, Hull, Sculcoates.

In the 3rd quarter of 1922, Frederick Wall married Doris M Kerr, in Hull. On 20 Nov 1922, Frederick Wall (25), died, as the notice in the Hull Daily Mail details, "On November 20th, at 24, Aldersey Gardens, Barking, Frederick, the dear husband of Doris M Wall (nee Kerr), and dear son of Mr & Mrs Wall of 12, Stafford Street, Hull, aged 25." Checking the Electoral Register for 1922, Richard Arthur Wall, Hannah Wall and Frederick Wall were still listed as living at 12, Stafford Street, Hull, sadly confirming that the couple had now lost all three of their sons. 

A happier notice in the Hull Daily Mail in 1925 reads, "LOVATT-WALL: June 10th, at St Paul's Church, George Herbert, youngest son of Mr & Mrs W Lovatt, to Margaret Elizabeth, only daughter of Mrs & Mrs R A Wall, both of the city."

In 1939, Richard A Wall, Shore Steward Retired and Hannah Wall were living at 21 Reldene Drive, Kingston Upon Hull. That year, George H Lovatt, Clerk (Gas Co) and Margaret E Lovatt were living at 9 Carisbrooke Avenue, Cottingham. There are no birth registrations, so George and Margaret don't appear to have had children.

Richard Arthur Wall died on 3 Dec 1948. From Hull Daily Mail, "WALL - On Dec 3rd, at his daughter's residence, 26, Bricknell Avenue, Richard Arthur, aged 83, beloved husband of Hannah Wall. Resting at Messrs Moses' Private Chapel, Beverley Road. Internment Western Cemetery, Tuesday 1 p.m."

Hannah Wall died at the age of 90, in 1958. 

George Lovatt died, in Beverley, in 1986. Margaret Elizabeth Lovatt of St Mary's Nursing Home, Chanterlands Avenue, Hull died 9 April 1991. Both reached 91.

Thomas Tuff and Rebecca Archer

Decommissioned church, Langdon Hills
cc-by-sa/2.0 - © Robin Webster - geograph.org.uk/p/2158438

Thomas Tuff (bap. 1 May 1785), son of Richard Tuff and Mary Pasfield, married Rebecca Archer (b. 1788, cannot find a baptism), at the now closed church of St. Mary and All Saints, Old Church Hill, Langdon Hills on 19 Oct 1814. Possibly in a previous edifice, as while there's been a church on the site since at least the 14th century, the present building probably dates from the 19th century.

Thomas will have been 29 when he married, which lends credence to the earlier records found for him serving on HMS Temeraire (1798) in 1798 and 1799. 

There are records only for two children:

1. Robert Tuff bap. 30 Jul 1815 at Langdon Hills, Essex
2. Harriet Tuff bap. 5 Oct 1817 at Langdon Hills, Essex

Rebecca Tuff died, aged 37,  and was buried on 11 May 1825 at St Mary the Virgin & All Saints, Langdon Hills.

In 1841, Thomas Tuffs (sic) (50) had in his household in Langdon Hills, Essex, his son-in-law, Henry Young (30), daughter, Harriet Young (23) and their daughter, Eliza (0), as well as a William Bradd (20), who may have been a lodger.

In 1851, Thomas Tuff (66), born in Little Waltham, was living with his son-in-law, daughter and their family, still in Langdon Hills.

Thomas Tuff died, in Orsett, in 1869, at the age of 84. He was buried, on 3 Sep 1869, in Langdon Hills, but on the burial record his abode is listed as "Orsett Union House", i.e. Orsett Workhouse (later Orsett Hospital, Rowley Road, Orsett.)

George Markham and Mary Storm

St Peter Street, Kingston upon Hull
cc-by-sa/2.0 - © Bernard Sharp - geograph.org.uk/p/3509649
The former churchyard of St Peter, Drypool. St Peter, the fisherman, sits firmly and pensively on the site of the church, demolished following Second World War bomb damage. 

George Markham (bap. 4 Jun 1809 in Messingham, Lincolnshire), son of Joseph Markham and Sarah Dawson, married Mary Storm (b. ~1811), on 13 Oct 1828 in the parish of Sculcoates, All Saints, which at that date, the marriage will have taken place in the ancient St. Mary's Anglican church, Sculcoates. Witnesses were a Joseph Gleadhill and a John Bradbury (relationships not known). No baptism found for this Mary Storm, however, as George's maternal grandmother was also a Mary Storm, it seems incredibly likely George and Mary could have been cousins.

George and Mary Markham's children:

1. Joseph Markham b. 23 Aug 1830, bap. 19 Sep 1830 in Drypool, St Andrew *
2. Sarah Ann Markham bap. 9 Dec 1832 in Drypool, St Andrew. * On Sarah's baptism, their address is given as Groves, Sutton - a slum area in east Hull, a riverside community of mills and cramped terraces along Cleveland Street.
3. Mary Jane Markham bap. 13 Oct 1835 in Drypool, St Andrew. * On this baptism, their residence was listed as Holy Trinity [Parish]
4. William Markham bap. 14 May 1837 in Drypool, St Andrew. * Residence Holy Trinity Hull. Buried on 25 Jun 1837 at Holy Trinity, father Geo Markham.
5. Richard Markham b ~1843 (No birth or baptism record found.)

* Although listed as the parish of St Andrew, St. Andrew's Church was not consecrated until 1878, so these baptisms will have been at the former St Peter's Church, Drypool Green. Destroyed by bombs in 1941, its shell survived the war, the tower being the last part to be demolished. The churchyard is now a garden.

Joseph Markham was baptised at the same time as his aunt, Martha Markham, his father's youngest sister, so we can be in no doubt that this is the right family.

In 1841, George Markham (30) (rounded) Publican; Mary Markham (30), Joseph Markham (10), Sarah Markham (8) and Mary Markham (6) were living in Raikes Street, Drypool. Sadly, there are no clues to the name of the pub. (There's reason to believe: Raikes Street (or Church Street) (Drypool), that Raikes Street was the same as, or renamed to Church Street. This gives an insight into the area.) 

In 1861, George Markham (52) Farmer, from England was in the Township of Reach, Ontario, Canada, his religion Primitive M [Methodist]; with Mary Markham (50), Joseph Markham (31) Minister; Eliza Ann Markham (23) (wife of Joseph); Mary Jane Markham (25) and Richard J Markham (18) Teacher.

In 1871, George Markham (62) Farmer was living in the Township of Mariposa, South Victoria, Canada with Mary Markham (60) and Mary Jane Markham (36). On this census return their religion is expressed as "Eps Meth" (Episcopal Methodist).

Mary Markham, wife of George Markham, died aged 66 on 21 Mar 1878. She is buried at Bethel Cemetery, Greenbank, Durham, Ontario, Canada.

In 1881, George Markham (71) Farmer, Widower, was in the Township of Reach.

George Markham died on 3 Jan 1885, aged 76 and is buried at at Bethel Cemetery, Greenbank, along with his late wife. (I cannot account for the utter blasphemy of suggesting that they were from the "wrong side of the Pennines".)
