First wife - never forgotten by Joseph

Joseph married twice. His first wife was Julia Seebohm who he married in 1862 and who died the following year. We do not know what she might have become had she lived. However, 187 letters between Julia and Joseph survive at the Borthwick Institute for Archives in York and give a detailed view of her childhood and young adulthood, her family and friendships. Joseph never forgot Julia and their daughter, who also died young, and remained closely connected to the Seebohm family.
