I'm searching for the above mentioneds wife. I think that she was called Margaret and that they had at least 8 children. One of which was Henry born 1824 in Bentley, Yorkshire. Any help is appreciated.

That looks like your Henry there, and presumably the others are his siblings.

This is what the record says for Martha:

The others say only Margaret for mother.
