The district Halifax spans the boundaries of the counties of West Riding of Yorkshire and West Yorkshire;

Thanks everyone. It's difficult to know about the earlier censuses and I not sure if it is the same John Greenwood. I dont think the Calverley Greenwoods are the same as there is no Herbert anywhere and he is the one that I am sure of. I feel that the only way to get anywhere with them is the find the marriage cert but that is proving very difficult
Thanks
Gill

I wonder about this one?


East wood and green wood if they are both difficult to read?

Can anyone help me find the marriage of John Greenwood (c1832) and Mary Eastwood (c1840) nee Holmes. They lived in the Bradford area of Yorkshire. He was born in Bradford and she was born in Thornton Bradford.
I have the birth cert of their son Herbert born 10/08/1866 but cant seem to find anything much about the parents. It says on the birth cert that his mother is Mary Greenwood late Eastwood formally Holmes.
I can find them in the 1871 census but nothing prior to that.
I would appreciate any help
Thanks
Gill
