Member Since: November 2012 Posts: 2 Send Message	I am looking for information regarding Sarah Green (my Great Grandma). I have very limited information as family are very unsure about her. I know that she married Richard Frederick Jackson in the 1st Quarter of 1938, also that they had two daughters Margaret and Susan. She was born in either Wakefield or Pontefract and we assume she died in Knaresborough approximately 5-10 years before Richard who we have as deceased aged 82 in 1995. I would like to find this information so i can try to piece together a very tricky puzzle and any help with this would be very much appreciated . Anni

As daughter Harriet does not appear in the 1891 census........this might be her death......
