Hi Richard. I hope the following will be of help. Let me know.
Annie was brought up near where I went to school for a while in Carleton.Nr Pontefract.

Annie Bertha Furbisher born 1866. Oct/Dec Qtr. reg in Doncaster. vol 9c 547
Sarah Ellen. Born 1862. Oct/Dec Qtr. reg in York. Vol 9c ????

Marriage of Annie Bertha to Matthew Lawson Nisbet/Nissett. 1889 Oct/Dec Qtr. reg in Doncaster. vol 9c 1153.

Marriage of John Furbisher to Harriet Lightfoot. 1862. Jan/March Qtr. reg in York. vol 9d 80. Copy of this certificate will give you their Father's names and occupations. It should confirm or deny John's Father as JOHN also.

1881 census

Annie Bertha . his dau and she was niece to following people. 14. Born Hexthorpe. Yorks.
Do not know where Harriet was. John is shown as Married and not widowed.???
Living with.Frederick Lindsay. 42. Carpenter
Helena Sophia Lindsay. 51.
Minnie Bray Lindsay. 20. Milliner.

1871.
John. 33. Engine Driver. Born Carleton
Harriet 30. Born Askham Richard. Yorks
Sarah E 8. Born York
Annie B. 4. Born Hesthorpe.
Living Balby with Hexthorpe.

1851 Carleton. Nr Pontefract.
John. 48. Gardener. Born Carleton
Sarah. 41. Born Sheffield
Eleanor/Helena. 23. Dressmaker. Born Carleton.
William. 15. Gardener. Born Carleton
John. 13. Born Carleton
Joseph. 10. Born Carleton
Richard Martin. 6. Born Carleton
James Edward. 3. Born Carleston.

1841. Carleton
John. 35. Farmer
Sarah. 30
Helena 13.

Jane. 8.

John 3.
Joseph 2 months.


Dont be worried about the variation in the age of John. on the 1841 census they used to round up ages to the nearest 5 years, except in the case of children so there is often a gap.

I hope some of this will be of help. Ethel.
