TRACEY YEEEAHHHHHHHHHHHH!! Thanks sooooo much!! That definitely looks like them!! This is my husbands side and when my mother in law gave me the information late last year all I had was daughter Mary Ann (my mil's grandmother) and her parents names (Thomas and Hannah). I had found one other sibling and you have now given me other siblings!!!!!!!!!!! I received their marriage cert today so I have both Thomas and hannah's fathers names. Thanks again. Joanne (with a beaming smile on her face :))

Does this look like them in 1901? Alice Robinson 3 Castleford, Yorkshire, England Daughter Wakefield Yorkshire Hannah Robinson 25 Dalston, Staffordshire, England Wife Wakefield Yorkshire Hannah Robinson 4 Pontefract, Yorkshire, England Daughter Wakefield Yorkshire Jonathan Robinson 6 Altofts, Yorkshire, England Son Wakefield Yorkshire Mary A Robinson 7 months Sandal, Yorkshire, England Daughter Wakefield Yorkshire Nancy Robinson 2 Wakefield, Yorkshire, England Daughter Wakefield Yorkshire Thomas Robinson 30 Brawnhill, Staffordshire, England Head Wakefield Yorkshire

Tracy Would you be able to look up their family in 1901. I can see their 2 daughters on search results page. They are Mary Robinson age 7months born Sandal, Yorkshire. residence wakefield. and her sister Nancy Robinson age 2 born Wakefield, residence also wakefield (obviously) i don't have enough credit left to view their household. Thanks so much for your help JOanne

Can't see a Thomas with a Benjamin in 1871. Just a chance he didn't come from Yorkshire. Without birth place it is very difficult. There are hundreds of Thomas and Hannah Robinsons on 1901 alone. Tricia

Thanks. I don't know where they were born. I'm not sure where to go next! The only info I have is from Thomas Robinson and Hannah Baker's marriage certificate (which I received today :). Any advice would be much appreciated!! Joanne

They're not in Wakefield. Where were they born? The 1901 isn't "officially" there... but if you look, you can find anyone :)

Really? I just went on there and it said Yorkshire was 'coming'. Maybe they haven't updated their homepage yet! Thanks. Will have to now convince husband to pay for me to subscribe :) Joanne

Yorkshire is now on Ancestry.

I have two families that I'd like looked up on the 1891 please if anyone could be so kind (I'm waiting til Yorkshire 1901 in on ancestry before I subscribe!). I have a marriage certificate of a Thomas Robinson and Hannah Baker in 1894 and would like to find them and their respective families in 1891. They were both residing in Crofton, Wakefield, Yorkshire in 1894 so am assuming they are in same area. Thomas Robinson born abt 1870. Father is Benjamin Robinson. occupation: Miner Hannah Baker born abt 1874. Father is John Baker. occupation Miner. One of the witnesses on marriage cert is Jane Baker. Possibly mother or sister?? I'm sorry I don't have more information! Joanne
