What makes you think the father was a watchmaker?

The illegitimate birth is looking probable at the moment

Hmmm, here we go, I think!

Not seeing a birth for an Emma Jane Crabtree on freebmd

EDIT: No probably not - this one's in 1861 & 1871 censuses and her father's a butcher. At least it looks like the same one.

In 1911 census it says she was born in Knaresborough - if that's any help?

about Emily Jane Crabtree




Name:
Emily Jane Crabtree

Birth Date:
19 Jun 1854

Parish:
Birstall, St Peter

Baptism Date:
23 Mar 1856

Father's Name:
Crabtree

Mother's name:
Dinah Crabtree

I am wondering if she was illegitimate? I cant see her on a census with the father 'James'

Maybe she made him up?

Yes that is the correct marriage, as you can see EMILY married under the name of SPENCE and we have never been able to find her but on the 1911 census her name is entered as EMILY JANE SPENCER FOSTER, so we are now thinking that her maiden name was SPENCER instead of SPENCE.

Spence or Spencer?

We are looking for EMILY JANE SPENCER, she was born 1856-7 at Leeds or Sheffield Yorkshire, EMILY married ROBERT FOSTER at York in 1875, If anyone has the 1861 & 1871 census records would you kindly keep a look out for our EMILY, her father may have been a Watchmaker.
Thank you for any help.
