Hello Ann, Thanks for your reply.
1871 census James married but on the 1881 he is marked W (widdowed)
no results for 1861.
Catherine is nowhere to be found. :-S I assume the two daughters were hers as well.

Hi Shirley, I think this is the wrong James. The surname Andrews is not right :-(

No Kathleen it means there were two couples for that 1858 marriage lisiting

James Peters and James Andrews

there should be two ladies listed too but only one is listed a Rose Hannah Talbot

so there is a lady missing from the entry

I checked James Andrews on the 1871 to see who he married and it looks like HE married Rose Hannah Talbot so there is one lady still missing that married James Peters .

maybe she is Catherine and they married in her parish .

Sorry! my mistake. The marriage of James Peters/Cath.Rabbit in Sheffield.
I thought I had cracked it....sent for the marr.cert.......Wrong!.. so hence I'm back to the drawing board.
No knowing her dob. or place of dob I dont know where she originates from. have checked Parish records and burials.
At a loss to know where to look any more.
Thanks for you help.
