I know that Catherine Married James Edward Hollifield in 1888, I also know that she was in Stockton on Tees in the 1891 and 1901 census's and that in the 1901 census her Father seemed to have changed his name to Benjamin Bradley ( I have also seen he called Barbara?) and he was living with her and James.

Bill

Looking at the 1901 Census it has Barbara Bradley Father In Law??, it looks like Bernard to me so maybe this is her

The marriage cert will have her father's name and occupation, enabling a more accurate search on 1871 census.........
