Who Do You Think You Are - Brian Blessed 14th Aug

[Shona]

Jabez Blessed married Ellen Hobson in Hull in 1840.

I can't find the Jabez family on the 1841 census, though.

They may have been in Hull where they got married or in Malton in Yorkshire - Ellen's place of birth and where two of the children were born (Harriet who was nine and Elizabeth who was eight in 1851).

Ellen's brother, Thomas, 19, was living with the family in 1851, too.
