Sorry, don't know much info, it is a friend who wanted the info.

I found a marriage just before John Edgars birth and the possible spouses are, MaryJane Steel or Elizabeth Goodall.

Joseph was with mother in 1881,

Sarah Elizabeth living in Bradford also a brother Edgar.I have seen the brother Edgar in the listings for 1901.
