In 1856, when Ruth was born, Edwin was a constable at Sklrcoat, Halifax.
In 1871 Edwin Halliwell (57) was an “Invalid”, still with wife Sarah (54) and the youngest two daughters, but he had his mother-in-law Mary Noble (62, born Huddersfield). Mary Noble is actually Hannah's sister, so not quite a mother-in-law.
