Mary TOWLER

[maddys52]

Just for interest - there is also mention of Mary's brother Stephen TOWLER (bap 19 Nov 1826) in trouble with the law:

"Stephen Towler, aged 22, charged with having on the 24th of March, stolen three pecks of oats, value 6d. the property of George Emery, and another, at Cockley Cley, pleaded Guilty - fourteen days hard labour."
Norfolk News, Saturday,  July 21, 1849

(Maria TOWLER (daughter of Stephen, bap 4 Mar 1832) marries George EMERY (son of George EMERY) at Norwich 29 Apr 1848)

Witness to the marriage of Mary Towler to William Buckenham are Stephen Towler and Letitia Powley.
This is probably her brother Stephen as he and Letitia married 3 July 1852 at Swaffam.
Stephen was buried age 32 on 6 March 1859 at Cockley Cley.

1851 census Absolem Towler age 11 months so born 1850 is Mary's son probably by William Buckenham as in the parish record he was baptized 25 December 1851 and he was entered as parents William Buckenham and Mary. William Buckenham is then crossed out and Towler added.

Stephen Towler senior also got into trouble 1842 age 39 -- 3 months for larceny.
He was in the Swaffam work house 1881 he was buried 10 August 1887 age 83 at Swaffam.

His wife Mary was buried Cockley Cley 18 March 1878 age 78
