the surname Bosworth.

Now this marriage might show Mary Ann Fox's mother is Caroline as she marries David Bozeat.

Is there a John Thomas Fox baptised at Warmington around that time? 

Could he be Caroline's illegitimate son taking his step-father's name and the John Thomas Bosworth who married Mary Ann Fox be a different person?

Hhm, only obvious candidate on the census would be John Thomas Bosworth son of Elizabeth, being with his maternal grandparents on the 1861 Census.  His mother married Elija Monk in 1860, as he is resident with them on the 1871 Census.

Does look like David Bozeat may have had a few illegitimate children. 

Interestingly, the only David Bozeat on the Northamptonshire Baptism Index was David Ventice Bozeat the illegimiate son of Mary Ann Bozeat baptised at Warmington 15 May 1836.  The names Bozeat and Bosworth seems to be interchanged on the census but then that's whoever wrote them up. ::)

Death registration March qtr 1889 Northampton RD for a John Thomas Bosworth born c1857. 

1881 Census
Northampton
John T Bosworth Head 24 Carpenter born Warmington
Mary A Bosworth Wife 22 born Warmington
John W Bosworth 2 born Northampton

John Wallis Bosworth birth registered Jun qtr 1879 Northampton RD.

There are some ancestry trees with this couple listed.

There is a Wallis Fox in Warmington with wife Mary having children in the 1850s, although I can't see a Mary Ann with them, she could be listed under a different name.

Doesn't look like John Thomas Bosworth born 1856 to Elizabeth is the same person who married Sarah Elizabeth Wyman in 1885.  He would appear to be the husband of Mary Ann Fox though.

I have some more info at home Margaret so will see if I have anything to add

Hhm, interesting ancestry tree has a John Thomas Bozeat son of Mary Bozeat nee Pepperday resident in Warmington on 1861 Census.

1861 Census
Warmington
Mary Bozeat Wife Married 24 years Agricultural Labourers wife born Barrowden, Rutland
John Thos Bozeat son 2 years born Barrowden
William Bozeat son 1 year born Warmington

1881 Census
Warmington
David Bosworth Head Married 45 years Farm Labourer born Warmington
Mary Bosworth Wife 43 years born Barrowden, Rutland
William Bosworth son 21 years Farm Labourer born Warmington
Harry Bosworth son 13 years Farm Labourer born Parison?, Lincolnshire
Charles Bosworth son 12 years Scholar born Parison?, Lincs
George Bosworth son 10 years Scholar born Ramsey St Mary, Hunts
Louiza Bosworth dau 6 years Scholar born Warmington
Ellen Bosworth dau 4 years Scholar born Warmington
Mary Ann Bosworth dau 1 year born Warmington

Marriage certificate on tree:

Stamford Register Office
26 May 1858
David Bosworth 22 years single man agricultural labourer of Thornhaugh, Northamptonshire - no father's name
Mary Ann Pepperday 20 years single woman domestic servant of Red Lion Street, Stamford, daughter of Thomas Pepperday labourer
Both made their mark
Witnesses - Henry Clapton, Charlotte Love (who made her mark)

David Bozeat/Bosworth may be the David Boszett convicted at Peterborough General Quarter Sessions in October 1860 of "stealing from the person being armed" and sentenced to four years imprisonment.  The tree owner definately seems to think so and would explain why he isn't with Mary on the 1861 Census.

Sandy has confirmed the 1836 David Bozeat, there is also one baptised in 1833 to Thomas and Elizbeth Bozeat in Warmington who is with his parents on the 1841 and 1851 Census.  This would seem to be the David who married Caroline Fox.

The same ancestry tree is showing David Bozeat born 1836 with his mother Ann and step father William Hill on the 1851 Census.  They suggest Ann married William Hill Dec qtr 1839 Stamford RD - apparently at Easton on the Hill but I only have the Northants Marriage Index to 1837.  Sandy may be able to help with that one.  1851 Census says David was born Wittering but his mother was born Warmington and would appear to be the older sister of the other David Bozeat.

There is a John Thomas Bosworth birth registered Sept qtr 1858 Uppingham Registration District.  Uppingham RD includes Barrowden.  Perhaps John Thomas' age is slightly out on the Census.  Unfortunately the Rutland CMB Index only goes to 1840.  However, there is a Mary Pepperday baptised 18 Feb 1838 to Thomas and Ann, labourer, at Barrowden.

David Bozett certainly had a bastardy order against him for Rebecca Knighton of Tansor.

From the N.M.I.

Well besides getting totally confused as to whether we are assisting Margaret or
confusing her.  :-\

On the 1881 Census John T Bosworth and family are at 41, Alcombe Rd.

Quote
Death registration March qtr 1889 Northampton RD

Billing Road Cemetery
John Thomas Bosworth, 32 years, Turner Street, died Feby 14th 1889, buried
February 18th in grave A2 594

On the 1891 Census RG12/1200,Folio 47, Page 37, Sch 206, 3, Byfield Road, ST James
Mary Ann is visiting with children Elizabeth aged 14, and Leonard 1.

This is not the family that Margaret has asked assistance with.

I think we are on a wild goose chase here.

Okay back to the drawing board for me.

On the 1901 census Titchmarsh RG13/1452, Folio 137, Page 19, Sch 147
The Nine Inns

John Bosworth, 44, Warmington, Sarah Elizabeth, 34, Oundle, Mary, 13,
Archer, 11, Algernon, 9, Lydia, 9, Atherton, 8, Muriel, 7, Horace, 5,
William, 2, Wilford, 2, Charley, 1 all born Titchmarsh

If this is the correct family Margaret, could you confirm please as you say you have
access to the census returns.

Therefore the marriage details I noted to Sarah Elizabeth Wyman on Reply 11 are correct.

Warmington P.C. after Banns Pg. 119, No. 237,  June 28 1885
John Thomas Bodsworth? Bozeat, 28, Widower, Labourer, father David Bozeat
Sarah Elizaberth Wyman, 23, Spinster, Warmington, father John, Labourer
John signed his name, Sarah E her mark.
Witnesses:  John Weatherington and Eliza Bozeat both signed their marks.

This gives Margaret the brides surname.

The marriage on Reply 10 is not the correct John to Mary Ann Fox as he dies in 1889.

I do think the marriage to Eliza Elson should be kept in mind though noted on Reply 9.

Sandy

I agree, definately getting confusing. ;D

I tend to think Margaret's John Thomas Bosworth is going to be the son of David Bozeat/Bosworth and Mary Ann nee Pepperday who was most likely born at his mother's home of Borrowden in 1858.  The 1856 John Thomas is obviously accounted for elsewhere.

The fact that this David and Mary are in Warmington from about 1860 onwards, definately makes that family a contender for Margaret because it places them in the same parish as the other John Thomas.  Just because he says he was born in Warmington, doesn't mean that was the case and he probably didn't know any better if the family moved there when he was very young.  Mary probably went home for her first child.

It doesn't help that there are two David Bozeat/Bosworths in Warmington at the same time, one the brother of the other's mother. ::)

I think the problems are the varying ages of the two John Thomas Bosworth/Bozeat's on the Census.
