Hello Hazel, what are you looking for? Are you after his parents, his children, or what?

We don't want to duplicate what you already have.

Not finding a likely marriage for Hannah and William.

Would suggest ordering one of children's birth certificates to get Hannah's maiden name. You can then trace marriage, and back over.

e.g.

Surname First name(s) District Vol Page
Births Dec 1878
Dodd Watkin Easington 10a 405

You're welcome Hazel.

I don't think you're going to get back any further with any accuracy without getting some certificates, as suggested.

Do come back on this thread if you need any more help.
