Trying to find Smith

My grandfather Joseph Musgrave Smith married Charlotte Ann Boot and had I belive 10 children. I have Charlotte Ann's birth certificate: she was born in Scarborough in 1866, and it shows her mother as Rebecca Elliott and father as John Boot. I can find no trace of Joseph Musgrave prior to 1891 when he was living in Newcastle upon Tyne with Charlotte Ann. He was a professional musician according to the census form and she was a hawker. Any info on any of this would be most welcome. Jim Smith
