What good is information if not shared with others
|
To date, I have always thought my Gt Gt Gt Grandmother, Hannah came from Marston Moretaine in Bedfordshire as her place of birth on all the census records from 1851 to 1881 state place of birth as "Marson", Bedfordshire.
There is a christening for a Hannah WALTON, dau. of William & Mary, on the IGI for 13 October 1811 at Marston Moretaine which is in the right time frame and ties in with the name of her 1st born, William Walton CAWTHORN..............
Hannah would have married my Gt Gt Gt Grandfather, Joseph CAWTHORN of Emneth, in about 1830-1833, as their first child, William **Walton**, was baptised at Upwell St Peter's on 14 August 1834 + their next 2 children in 1836 & 1840.
BUT I cannot find any trace of their marriage - this is one of my brickwalls
Any advice, suggestions gratefully received, as always.
Ann

Hi Ann,
This seems a bit far away, but Pallot's Marriage Index has,
Jos CAWTHORN = Hant WALTON St Marylebone 1833
The image looks like Hanh

Daisy - just thought you might like to know................
City of Westminster Archives have sent me a p/copy of the relevant entry in the St. Marylebone Registers:
Joseph CAWTHORN & Hannah WALTON, bachelor & spinster, botp, married by banns on 15 September 1833 by the Curate.
Joseph signed his name, Hannah made a 'X'
The fact that CAWTHORN is spelt without an 'E' on the end makes me think that this IS my gt gt gt grandparents, as the CAWTHORNEs tend be from Yorkshire.
BUT what on earth were they doing in London, as it doesn't appear to be a shotgun wedding - I shall probably never know.
Many thanks again for your help in leading me to this Regsiter entry.
Ann
