When William died, Mary re-married.

Sarah Tetley, widow of William Tetley, was a Tetley before she married William. Sarah was a daughter of Joshua Tetley & Martha Atkinson, and therefore brother to the William who emigrated to New Zealand and founded one of our New Zealand Tetley families. I'm not sure who Sarah's husband, William's, parents were. If anyone can shed any light, I'd be grateful. Sarah's husband, William, had died in 1896. Samuel Herbert T (1872-1903) was the eldest child and died in May 1903 in Paeroa NZ, from TB. Annie was the next (born about 1873) and died in 1902, so should be on the 1901 census somewhere, maybe in hospital. Martha was, according to the information I have here, also buried in April 1901, which looks as though it may be awry, unless she died very soon after the census was taken!. Charles Henry Tetley also died in 1903 in Paeroa NZ from TB. The mother, Sarah also died in 1903, at Allerton. William Atkinson Tetley also travelled to New Zealand to try to recover his health, I presume, and died there in 1907. So, within the space of six years, all five siblings, and their mother had died (presumably all from TB, although I don't know that for sure). Their other brother, George, died at the age of two weeks in 1877. There were no survivors, as far as I'm aware. A sad tale indeed!
