This family do like unusual names
Henderson Rushbrook WOLFE mothers maiden name WATSON born in the June qtr of 1838 in Sunderand, Durham. As I would expect.
Henderson Rushbrook WOLFE death in Dewsbury, Yorkshire in the June qtr of 1839. Must have been before his first birthday as the age is recorded as 0.
It's Dewsbury that's worrying me. The next child was born in Sunderland in 1840.
I've not found anyone connected to the family in Dewsbury as yet.
Have you found the family in later census's - what does it say about places of birth - anyone from Yorkshire.

The image is on Ancestry in the West Yorkshire burials; there's no additional information, but there's something crossed out that I can't decipher.

Yes but they are all from Sunderland or Hull

Yes that's the correct fathers name

Maybe it shouldn't have been written there in the first place

I think possibly they originally wrote "Henderson son of James Wolf Rushbrook" and then realised they had put the Rushbrook in the wrong place.

I see the abode is given as Dewsbury, but there don't appear to be any Wolf/e baptisms in Dewsbury until much later.
