I am trying to ascertain if Elizabeth Hampshire married or co habited with Joseph Brooke (or Brook). She was born in 1815 in Huddersfield.
I know Joseph married an Elizabeth but cannot find proof that it was this Elizabeth. Joseph and Elizabeth (whichever one ) had a son Joshua born 1855 who married an Ellen (or Helen), possibly Bottom, Higgins or Higginbottom. Any information or assistance re. these two question marks in my family would be much appreciated.
