Problem with Beckingham, nr Gainsborough...

[scatchardfamily]

As it says above, problem with Beckingham....

I have a marriage of two ancestors - John Keyworth and Mary Powell - in Haxey in 1783.

I believe they settled in Beckingham as I have baptisms there 1785 - 1810.

Problem is, I cannot find anyone on the census, including the 1841...

Can anyone assist?

(Also, parentage suggestions of John and Mary welcome.)

Could this be Mary's burial

03 May 1828
Person age    67
Mary KEYWORTH

Very likely! Interesting says lives Walkeringham as there is a church there...

The Keyworths showing in Walkeringham in 1841 seem a different family to mine, or more distant cousins...

Children seem to be (have only noted birth years):

William 1783 Haxey - In Walkeringham 1841 etc.
Joseph 1785 Beckingham - bur.5/6/1828 Beckingham
John 1787 (must have died)
George 1789 - cannot find anything
Hannah 1792 - married Samuel Garnett 27/6/1818 Beckingham
Elizabeth 1793 - cannot find anything
James 1796 - bur.19/5/1815 Beckingham
Thomas 1798 - d.1798
Ann 1799 - bur.20/7/1806 Beckingham
Thomas 1804 - in Armthorpe, Yorks. 1841
John 1810 - in Morton, Lincs. 1841

Mother Mary buried 1828 as already advised.   Cannot find one for father John.

That's great, particularly because it means that John (m. Haxey) is still alive in 1841 and therefore within civil registration.

I know it's the same John Keyworth (with son Thomas in 1841) because the marriage cert of my ancestory Hannah (a daughter of his) states he was a miller – and he is stated to be such in the 1841 census.
