Many thanks Wendy & sue

Re IGI I was wondering if ' Priston' was in fact Preston and it seems that it may be so

Thanks again

Hi Sue

1851 lists George Watts, Hannah Watts and Precilla Cross in K B

I wonder if Hannah Cross married George Watts after G C's death ( mabe in 1830 )

Is it possible you have access to confirm this or not as the case may be

Regards

Hi Again Smiley

Could find no marriage for Hannah in Kingston Bagpuize PRs im afraid but did find the following
there Smiley

   Baptism

Oct 23 1831 Priscilla Cross illeg dau of Hannah

    Marriage

Jan 31 1852 Alfred Fuller (x), b, lab, of Charney
                    Priscilla Cross (x) sp
        Wits...... Sarah Thatcher (x), Frederick Fuller

I had a look in Oxfordshire Marriage Index and found the following marriage

9 Jun 1833 Hannah Cross to George Watts at Ox St Thomas

It doesn't mention widow so im not sure if this is your Hannah and im afraid i dont have PRs for
Ox St Thomas Roll Eyes

    Hope this may help a bit

Hi Sue

Thanks for that, hope I'm not being too much of a pain
you have been extremely helpful.

I think that we are on the right track and maybe someone in Oxford section can shed
light on the 'widow' question

Kindest regards

Hi

I checked the transcripts of St Thomas for that marriage,  but unfortunately is doesn't say wether either of  the parties were bach, sp or wid - it does give Hannah signing (x) ,  witnesses James Maltby & MAry Philpot,  the marriage was by banns and both were otp

Hannah Watts appears on 1851 as 61 born Kingston ,I'm almost certain this is the widow
of George Cross who died 1830.
Any information regarding the birth of Hannah Preston c. 1790 or death of Hannah Watts
1851 - 1861 would be appreciated.
A witness at Hannah's first marriage was a Sarah Preston - sister ?

  Hi Robsdad,

                    From OFHS Kingston Bagpuize PRs

Baptisms...... All children of Ralph and Hannah Preston

Nov 19 1780 Thomas
Mar 15 1789 Sarah
Aug 25 1790 Hannah
Mar 11 1792 Ralph

Hannah above seems to fit with what you found in 1851 Smiley

Not sure why there is such a gap between baptisms of Thomas and Sarah though  Undecided
