This week, just out of interest, I obtained the marriage cert of George Ghent, a Gardener aged 29 of Averham who married Sarah Adcock of Thurlby, aged 28 in Bourne, Lincs on Oct 25th 1870. His Father was Joseph Ghent, also a Gardener,  and hers Ireland Adcock, a Labourer.

Not fitted them into my tree yet. Maybe of interest to you?

Cheers, Ade.

1911 Kendal rd Bolton Lancashire
George GHENT 68 Gardener born Averham
Alice 57 born Thurlby Lin.
