Pigney family

I don't subscribe to that site, I pay enough to ancestry and find my past. I  will have a look at that census

Freereg is free, so is familysearch 

[Janmlawson]

When I looked at it they offered a free trial and then 5 euros a month payable annually.  Am I doing it wrong?

[Janmlawson]

looked at again and has the same info I found on find my past.  I blame the heat for earlier failure.

Freereg are transcriptions being done by volunteers and should be free to everyone.  Familysearch talk about logging on but I never have.  FindMyPast have Cambridgeshire transcripts as you have probably found. 

I think that it is your Mary Ann, particularly as Emma is also in Lancashire.  I would not worry too much about occupation changes of their father either. My Cambridge lot flitted between cab drivers, publicans and farmers 

[Janmlawson]

This is very interesting and I will look into it further.  I have also emailed the person who changed the name on the Census. Thanks for the help.

That 1822 marriage is on FreeREG

There is also a Emma PIGNEY/Charles SEVES Marriage 20 Apr 1843, Chesterton, Cambridgeshire
Charles a Compoitor
Fathers;
WILLIAM Pigney, Publican
JOHN Seves, Coal Merchant
Witnesses, William Pigney/R Bunnell

I cant find anything under that name Seves other than the Marriage.

This marriage is very briefly mentioned in Cambridge Chronicle on FindMyPast

There is also mention of William - Cambridge Chronicle and Journal 16 January 1829

[Janmlawson]

I will look at the newspaper too.
