I have been baffled for a while now as to the identity of my Gt Gt Gt Grandfather (James Martin b.1814 d.1868)'s First Wife. On 27th July 1850 The Countess' of Huntingdon's Chapel, Oxlode, he re-marries to widow Mary Crisp (ne้ Tingey) and they go on to have my Gt Gt Grandfather and a couple of other children.
...but can i find that first marriage? no!
The 1851 census happily shows James with his second wife in Little Downham but the information that i dont have is the 1841 census for the villages in the title of this topic. If James did father children with his first wife, then i would be surprised if they survived infancy as there are no obvious clues.. however, James was 35years old (as was Mary) when he married for the second time in 1850, so it is possible that had he married quite young, then his children with his first wife may have been in servant/domestic roles in other families.
If anyone has any useful information or guidance on tracking down this first wife then do please let me know. I've had a look at burial registers and banns listings and there isnt really anything that jumps out at me.

HI
TAKE A LOOK AT THIS SITE,IT HAS THE 1841 CENSUS ON IT, I PUT IN JAMES MARTIN AND IT BRINGS UP 17, DO BARE IN MIND THAT AGES ARE USUALLY ROUNDED OFF IN FIVES IN THE 1841 CENSUS.

Thanks Nicky,
But i think i'd already tried that source some time ago... but it does at least give me a few leads to check out.
I have a gap in my notes of Marriages in Little Downham.. it is likely that he married in that gap. Once i fill this gap in my notes, i should be well on my way to deducting the suspects provided by the 1841 findings.
