Joseph and Sarah married 25th June 1860 at St Bartholemew's church, Birmingham. By 1861 they had one child William and were living in part of a house in Lawley Street, Aston.  By 1871 they had moved to Gale Street and in 1881 they were living at 208 Adderley Road, Aston, Warwickshire.  By 1891 they had moved to Kimberworth, Rotherham and lived at 36 Edward Street - by this time only daughter Alma was still living with her parents.  Joseph was still working as a wagon maker.

Sarah's parents were Joseph Brittle born 1807 and Ann Brittle born 1809, of Aston, Birmingham.

Joseph and Sarah had seven children.  They were:-

The family moved from Birmingham to Rotherham sometime before 1891.  Joseph (born 1864 - Clara's eldest brother) kept the Black Bull public house in Rotherham, opposite Rotherham football ground.   He lost all his money so moved with his wife (Emma Jones) to Manchester where he worked as a railway wagon maker. When he was young he had trained as a carpenter with his father. He had nine children and their descendants live in Blackpool, York and Perth, Australia.

By 1871 the family had moved to Little Cottage, Canal bank and Joseph was working as a labourer at the station.  Living in the house was Joseph, his wife Ann, their daughter Harriet Aston and her husband John.  There was also a baby Arthur Burton who is just described as a "nurse child"!
