Hello everyone,
Catherine Hannah Ward was born on the 25th January 1840 in Hampstead, London. Her Father was Richard George Ward a Licensed Victualler and her mother was Catherine Barrow Ward formerly Hardcastle.
Richard registered the birth and his abode is given as Mill Walk (I think - bad writing!), Hampstead.
Richard and Catherine's marriage certificate tell us:
April 27 1839, St Pancras Parish Church, London
Richard George Ward, Full Age, Widower, Hairdresser, Kentish Town, William Ward, Dead
Catherine Barrow Hardcastle, Full Age, Spinster, ---, Kentish Town, William Hardcastle, Tailor
Witnesses were George Henry Cragg and Mary Hannah Cragg
Catherine Barrow Hardcastle was from Skipton, North Yorkshire.
In 1861 Catherine is back in Skipton with her parents and is a widow. She has a son with her, Richard G Ward, born c1847 in Uxbridge, Middlesex.
In 1851 Catherine is also with her parents and another son, Charles Albert born c1845 in Uxbridge. She is shown as being married, not a widow.
So, can anyone find anything about Richard George Ward Snr?
Thanks,
Tom
