Hello,

It's best to state what kind of information you have and what you want to save unnecessary searching or duplication.
Do you want them in censuses?

Here is their marriage from the indexes.
March quarter 1868 Vol 3b
Sarah Ann Bloodworth
Robert Dexter

I do stress that you need to check and verify thro' certificates.

Bit of a mystery now:

1851 HO107  piece  1747  folio 665  page 10

(transcribed as Denter)

Henry head married 30 yrs Ag lab Cambridge Thorney
Thomas  son 3 yrs b Werrington

so not sure where Mary Ann and Robert are
