Jen, I found William Bentley in someone's tree on ancestry and it says he died in 1869 but they don't have a marriage for him. I'm presuming he is the right William Bentley though as his father was Benjamin a tailor (1851 census) and his mother was Patience. William was baptised at Tutbury, Staffs on 3 Jun 1838, his parents had a large family including two sons who was born in the USA, and twins who were baptised under the mother's maiden name of Harrison. The rest of Ben & Patience's children, apart from one other, were all born in Tutbury as far as I can see. I can't find wife Hannah in 1871 though as I'm not sure where she was born. Cheers....Dawn ©¿©¬ Jennifer Craddock wrote: > Where did William Bentley and Hannah Salt nee Hickingbotham (various > spellings) go > > > William Bentley (shoe maker) aged 29 and Hannah Salt (widow) aged 26 > married 9 June 1867 at Parish Church Duffield, Derby > Father of William was Benjamine Bentley (Tailor) Father of Hannah was > Matthew Hickingham (Labourer) > Witnesses - Herbert Archer and Elizabeth Smith > > I can find no trace of them in 1871 census

Whoever's tree it is may have mis-identified the place or mis-recorded it as being in the USA when it wasn't. Connie in London

Hi Dawn I have seen the tree in Ancestry and contacted the owner, however they said that 'my' William was not the same as 'their' William even though they both have a father Benjamin I am not convinced that is the case, so may contact them again Also on one census I did see one son was born in the US but did not know of another and also the twins with the mothers maiden name is new , so thanks very much for all your information. Sad if the William Bentley who died is the same one, Hannah is now a widow twice in a very short period. Hannah was my gg and was born 1843 in Cotton Staffs kind regards Jen On 13/03/2013 7:16 PM, Dawn Scotting wrote: > Jen, > > I found William Bentley in someone's tree on ancestry and it says he > died in 1869 but they don't have a marriage for him.
