Hi , Anybody know what district Marsden in West Yorks would have come under when registration started? I seem to be going round in circles, and getting nowhere fast. Jay.

It's near Huddersfield, but I'll check cos it could come under Holmfirth. Yeah, comes under Huddersfield for Civil Registration.

If before 1870, it wasn't compulsary. Or maybe she wasn't registered where you think she was....
