A few loose ends ...

One of my problem families -

Jonathan DENWOOD bap 31 Dec 1800 Cockermouth (mother Sarah), buried 6 Oct 1834 Cockermouth

before he died (perhaps) he married  Mary ??

Children
Sarah DENWOOD 1830 Wigton - 1833 Cockermouth
Jonathan DENWOOD 1832 Wigton - 1891 Wigton
Mary 1834 Cockermouth (bap the same day as her father's burial)

By 1841 Mary may have married again (or not)

Queen St, Carlisle (St Mary)
Mary SCOTT 40 Lab
Jonathan 10
Robert 8m
plus a ROOK lodger

in the house of John ROOK and family in Wigton was
Mary DENWOOD 8

Was Robert SCOTT the one bap at Carlisle, Holy Trinity 14 March 1841, son of Joseph (a Weaver) and Mary SCOTT (address given as Queen St)?  Who was Joseph SCOTT?  What became of him?  I never found a marriage for them ...

1851
New St, Wigton
Mary DENWOOD 51 Wigton
Jonathan 19 Wigton
Mary 16 Cockermouth
Robert 10 Carlisle

EDIT:  I had never looked for daughter Mary until this morning.  It turns out that she married almost 300 miles away in Ross on Wye, Herefordshire in 1860.  Curiously, I went to Ross on Wye yesterday morning.

1861
New St, Wigton
Mary SCOTT 58 Wigton
Robert 18 Carlisle

1871
New St, Wigton
Mary DENWOOD 70 Wigton
plus 3 of Jonathan's children from his first marriage.

1881
Mary DENWOOD 81 Wigton
plus several grandchildren

Was Mary originally called ROOK?  There were two of them baptised only a week apart at Wigton! 
Did she marry Jonathan?  Was it a NonCom wedding?  Their son Jonathan married - twice - at Gretna.

Did she marry Joe SCOTT?

I think eventually I may have to ask Carlisle for one of these
Births Mar 1841 
Scott    Robert         Carlisle    25   76
Scott    Robert         Carlisle    25   77

The more I practice, the luckier I seem to get.
