Mary Bosward born 1789 Bethnal Green
« on: Sunday 28 January 18 23:02 GMT (UK) »
Hit a brick wall...

Mary Bosward married William Blackburn in 1822 at Christ Church, Greyfriars, Newgate and their daughter Elizabeth Blackburn was born 1823 -she was 'deaf and dumb' and married James Roberts, also D&D according to the census.

But who were Mary Bosward's parents? Was her name taken down wrong? Can't find a spec of info on her!

The daughter Elizabeth Blackburn was in St Pancras work house with her child James William Blackburn 15 June 1849.
ADDED she is listed as being D&D as written in book.
The son James William was born 27 November 1848 at St Saviour Southwark Work House, he was baptized there, parish chargeable was Christ Church.
