Thank you so very much for your prompt and precise reply to my enquiry.
It was also very kind of you to cross refer your findings with the census records.
It was a conundrum for me as I was not aware of the marriage of William Rolfe (widower)
to Mary Shearman/Bearman (widow) on the 6th November 1803 Fulbourn St Vigor!
The marriage was witnessed by Wm L Harvey & Chas Dawson
(n.b Chas was a regularly witness to many Fulbourn marriages!)
I have attempted to trace previous marriages for both William & Mary and have failed!
Too many marriages for men named William Mason and only one definitive burial occurring in Fulbourn (1846 William aged 78?)!
To throw an iron in the works a Mary Shearman (
single) married William Harris October 24 1815 All Saints.
Oddly the marriage was witnessed by Susan ROLFE & John KIRK!
I think that I had better have another drink before mentioning the Hart family of Fulbourn.
I expect that you are aware that the Hart family are connected by marriage with the Rolfe, Mason, Shildrick, Littlechild & Hancock families...where will it end?
Too much inbreeding as my Grandma used to say!
By the way John Littlechild married 3 times;
Elizabeth Miller
Mary Hart
Sarah Adam
