Thank you Flick, it was the salford marriage I was confused about as it had Abraham born 1831 in Hull and I wondered for a while if he had 2 families. As there was no fast transport between the two places not very likely.
Regards Barara

There doesn't appear to be a marriage on freebmd for the couple in Hull on 1861 census.

The only marriage of an Abraham to Elizabeth in approx year is in Manchester - which is obviously the couple in Salford in 1871 etc

NOT relevant as such...but a clear example of why submitted records on the IGI should be taken with a pinch of salt............

This is a submitted entry based on the inaccurate 1881 census transcription!!!!!!!!!!

Abram BATTY

MMN will be on this cert - then you can find the correct marriage

Births Mar 1876 (>99%)

BATTY John Hull 9d 253


BTW - the other Abraham born c1831 is in Salford Lancs in 1871 and 1881

ALSO

Matilda shown above in 1881 was not born in 1838 - her age is actually 13!

Oddly enough, born in 1876, John wouldn't be on the 1861 census.

Is JOHN your direct ancestor?

Where was he born?

Barbara Report 25 Jun 2010 15:46

Another family called Batty with the same marriage date and the wifes first name Elizabeth made me unsure if I had the correct family or not. is there a John with this household born 1876?

Abrahams birth is too early for meo check on Freebmd.
There appears to be two families with similar childrens agesand I'm trying to clarify which one I need.
I hope someone can help me.
