A little confusion here...

These look to be the banns 2, 9 and 16 June (image)
West Yorkshire, England, Marriages and Banns, 1813-1935
Samuel Ellison
Marriage or Bann Date: 16 Jun 1822
Parish: Tong, St James
Spouse: Hannah Crossland

Then there is this mar.
Same source:
Samuel Ellison
Marriage or Bann Date: 5 Aug 1824
Parish: Leeds, St Peter
Spouse: Hannah Crosland
[Image says Hannah is a spinster, no condition for Samuel. He is an Iron Monger]

This may be Samuel's 2nd mar. if it is the correct family :rolleyes:

Re the two sets of banns. Possibly for some reason, ie Hannah being from out of the parish, she was born Holme, a small village near Holmfirth, the wedding didn't take place at Tong. They then had banns read at Leeds St Peters where hopefully the vicar would have married them
