Completed Mary Parker - b. 1832 in Cumberland?
« on: Monday 29 October 07 18:46 GMT (UK) »

Hi,

I was trying to find out who Mary Parkers parents were. All i have is that she was born in 1832 somewhere in Cumberland OR Westmorland? She married Isaac Dawson (b. 1842) in Kendal in 1865 and had 3 children: Benn, Harry and Maggie.
That's all i know i'm afraid so any other info on her and possibly parents would be much appreciated.
Thanks, Erica.

Hi Erica,

Just to add slightly more information about Mary in 1891 she claims to have been born in Hawkshead, Lancashire.

http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/LAN/Hawkshead/

This will no doubt add to the confusion - sorry!

Kind regards,

Here they are in 1881, this seems to confirm the birthplace stated for Mary in 1891.

The marriage is in the IGI - 02 NOV 1865      Langdale By Ambleside, Westmorland

Do we actually know that Mary was a spinster at the time of her marriage?

Isaac appears to have been the illeg son of Elizabeth, bap Nether Wasdale 5 June 1842 ... perhaps his father was BIBBY.
