Looking for the marriage's of William marsh.
William was born in Atherton lanc's his father was James marsh.
In 1850 William had a daughter Elizabeth .
In 1853 William marsh married Mary Scholes 31/07/1853 in Wigan .I have found one daughter for William and Mary she is Martha J Marsh born 1876.
Have looked for the mother of Elizabeth with the father William , but can't confirm a mother.
Have looked at all the census and I seem to find more marriage's for William than is plausable .
Any help to find Elizabeth's mother and any more family for William and Mary Scholes would be great.
Hope I have given enough info .
