I noticed that they married at Hanover Square. Perhaps that is why his father is described as a farmer when he only had a few acres.

Many thanks. She was as far as I can tell a laundress but no doubt living and marrying in St George's (Mayfair area) he wanted to impress. As a butler he possibly had inflated views! Wonderful help thanks Mark
