Re: Ridge family 1861

Interesting find....

John Harris's first wife was Elizabeth Ridge, Jane's older sister.

Re: Ridge family 1861

Hi John

I don't know how it was indexed, I couldn't find Jane at first either.
I noticed that when Jane married John Harris they were both living on the same street, so I looked for him. The keyword "cab" brought nothing up, but when I used "coachman" he came up straight away. Then I just walked up and down the street a bit and they they were.

Curiosity got the better of me so I've just checked.
FMP had transcribed her as Jane KIDGER

Re: Ridge family 1861

Not been able to find Elizabeth Ridge (b 1805) death yet, did she remarry after the 1861 census?

found I think died 1884 aged 80 buried in Burngreave cemetery, lots of people in the grave I wonder if they are all related. I used Elizabeth harris in the search box.

she died 1867 aged 34 (would that be right?)

Re: Ridge family 1861

Her burial is on this site .She died 1884 and is buried with HARRIS family in Burngreave Cemetery.

Just seen your reply John. You beat me to it. The Elizabeth you are referring to is John Harris's first wife.
