• Notes

  Betty most probably marries William HARTLEY, a weaver, at St John the Baptist, Halifax on 24 Apr 1810, and the later information is based on this premise. William has died by the 1851 Census. At 1841, 1851 and 1861 Census is a grand-daughter, Esther (DOB around 1836). Because Sally is there at both these censuses, it is probably her daughter and that Sally is presumably unmarried.
