There's a baptism of Joseph Axon, the son of James and Sarah, at New Romney St Nicholas, on 28 June 1797. Is this the same family?

And a William bapt 19 Oct 1794 in Stockport s/o James and Sarah (7 months after their marriage)
Just a transcription on FindMyPast (note says Presbyterian)

Source of the full name, unseen by me, was 'Wright's Chronological Bibliography of English Language Fiction in the Library of Congress through 1950 (Boston: G. K. Hall, 1974)'. Author is listed in the unknown nationalities section, nothing else known except her book, under a pseudonym, was published 1901 -
"Penelope Dalrymple
        rn: Urania Burnett Sunderland. "That Wager of Dot's." Abbey
(NYC), 1901"



Indianapolis Journal, Volume 51, Number 322,Indianapolis, Marion County, 18 November 1901

has a list of recently published books including:
 "The Wager of Dots," a story of American life, by Penelope Dalrymple.
Penelope aka Urania must have had experience of life in America.
Can't work out the significance of the title though

Looking at Familysearch, there are quite a number of children baptised to Anna Maria Burnett in Barbados, before and after Urania. Might not all be the children of the same Anna Maria of course, but there are no overlaps and intervals between them seem consistent with being the same mother. Unless Anna Maria had several men friends, it could indicate she was in a long term relationship with one man, whom she could not marry. One child has a second forename Delaney.

I also have this snippet of information from my grandfather’s notes that Mary Gauntlett (nee Eley) came from the family of the Duke of Leinster also Earl of Kildare. Not even sure how I would go about trying to trace this?  There is some link with Norman-Irish, perhaps FitzGerald.  Perhaps some illegitimacy along the line, or someone trying to say that she came from a ‘good family’.  Who knows.

If there is an Irish connection, my first thought would be it would be from Mary's grandfather Fergus.

he appears on both 1841 and 1851 censuses on his own (In 1851 he is recorded as widower) so it looks as if Jane died before 1841 and all the children have flown the nest. In 1841 he is recorded as born in county and in 1851 as born in Longtown.
there is a William Marriner in Longtown in 1861 (with baby son Fergus)  who fits with William the son of Fergus and Jane.

Has anyone found William in 1851? If I have found the right family, he is not with Catherine and the children. Catherine describes herself as butler's wife

Where have you found  Urania Burnett Sunderland?
The birth record gives Urania's mother as Anna Maria, no father mentioned. Have you traced the mother at all?
