Please can someone look up Hary Clark and his wife Mary Ellen on the 1891 census for Yorkshire. Mary ellan was born in the Northallerton district of North Riding Yorkshire. Sorry that is all I know.

Haryy and Mary Ellen married in 1888. There should be children possibly from a previous marriage. In the name of Ellerby.

thanks for your help

Right I was hoping this was going to be easy but I was wrong. This is the email sent to me.

As always this is probably a dead end, but one never knows. I have the will of Ella Hoggard of E.Halton in my possession. She d. 23.6.1954 willing to Alfred Ernest Grey her brother-in-law and sister Priscilla (nee Ellerby) his wife and also to Florence Ellerby her step-sister. I don't know where they all fit into my tree but I remember a Walter Ellerby visiting my parents. Do any of these seem familiar? Julian.

My Alfred Ernest possibly did marry Priscilla clark. as their is a marriage sept 1919 in Glanford Brigg.. I dod not have the marriage cert.

I have found a marriage between Mary Ellen Thompson and William Thackery Ellerby in 1882. William died in 1886. Mary Ellen Ellerby married Harry Clark in 1888.

Unfortunately this is all I have to go on. Thanks for your help

Jane,

If Mary Ellen was born in 1871, she couldn't have had a daughter born in 1860!!

No sign of priscilla either - but she may have married by then
