Catherine was born in yorkshire England, She had 5 children whom I have the names for and she was married to Ezra Lindley when she died. I am trying to find out the names of her parents and siblings. Her burial was registered in Wentworth but not sure what her connection is with wentworth. She was married in wath upon dearne in 1831 which means she would only be 12 ? Is this possible.

Jacqueline, the Latter Day Saints website has Catherine Hawke marrying Ezra Lindley in Dec 1831. There is also a birth for Catherine Hawke 15 Jun 1813 in Penistone Yorkshire parents Martin Hawke and Martha Bramall. Do you think this is the person you are looking for?

Hi Jacqueline,

Are you basing Catherine's age on the 1841 census? If so she will have been older than shows on census as ages were rounded down for the 1841.

Jacqueline

Jacqueline Report 22 Mar 2008 19:07

On 1841 census her age is 22 which means she was born in 1819 or could this be wrong?

On the census I could not find the address of Ezra and Catherine.

It looks like Broadcar to me. Often rural districts didn't have a full address as there was only a handful of houses in each hamlet/village......so not necessary

Jacqueline Report 22 Mar 2008 19:28

I think I have the address it says stubbin land on one of the earlier pages, then 'do' so am I right in think the registrations are for stubbin lane

If you look at this website Jacqueline....you'll see Broadcar mentioned as a hamlet of Nether Hoyland.

This is the site which mentions Broadcar.

I don't think they lived on Stubbin Lane, as it changes from Stubbin Lane to Broadcar. However they clearly lived very near to Stubbin Lane.
