If he died in 1831 aged 40 - his birthyear would be around 1790/91 - not 1795

Do you have any documentary proof that he was actually born in Leicester?  Although he married there - he may have been born in another county

Hi Alienlady, and welcome to Rootschat!

You seem to be looking for two different William Marstons, one born c1759, and one born c1895 - is this right?

A reply on your other post http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,651135.0.html suggests it was the older William who died in 1831.

FamilySearch has a marriage for William Marston to Mary Kilby in 1783 which would match the older one, but the only marriage I can see for a William Marston in 1823 is to Ann Sibson in Thurmaston - was "Mary Kilby" an error on your post, or were there two couples with the same names?
