Hi Richard (In Yorkshire), Many thanks for the Calverley entries, some of which are new to me! For this one, I think you're right that Sarah was Luke's sister:- "Sarah TETLEY o.t.p spinster married Thomas CORLDS ?? on 28th March 1830 witnessed by Luke TETLEY & Ann CORLDS (page 158 number 473)" Sarah was born 1805 and baptised 1824. Luke (1806-1882) & Sarah's parents were John Tetley (1772-?) and Susannah Porritt, (if I've got my facts straight!) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This next one is a bit complicated. "John TETLEY (Wool Comber) o.t.p married Emma WHEATER o.t.p spinster on 2nd July 1832 witnessed by Henry TETLEY James WHEATER & Peter TETLEY (page 269 number 807) " (Your wrote:- "Richard, You have a Thomas COTT as being married to Emma WHEATER is this correct? or do you have two Emma WHEATER’S ?") Its the same Emma Wheater, I think. I believe that John died in 1836, and that Emma re-married, as Emma Tetley (widow) to Thomas Cott (or Gott). In the 1851 census Emma was shown as a widow. In the 1871 census, John & Emma's daughter Mary Tetley was shown as aged 33 , step-dau of Thomas Cott/Gott and his wife was Emma. This (below) is the same Emma in 1881 (I believe) but the identity of daughter Ellen is a bit of a mystery. She can't be John's daughter because he died in 1836 and Ellen was born in about 1848. Possibly she was a daughter of Thomas Gott, and should have been shown as as step-daughter of Emma's. If Ellen had been Emma's daughter, she would surely have shown up in the 1851 census, with Emma, before she married Thomas Gott.

Maybe Emma never actually married Thomas Gott! More questions than answers, I fear!
