Thanks Kay.

I too love puzzles.  William and Ann's first child was John. ;D

There is one private family tree on Anc that has appears to have the Branston family and may be worth contacting

After a bit of fiddling

Dorothy Towers married Richard Hives (of Hose) in 1819 in Branston - witness listed as John Towers - a John Towers was also a witness at Anns marriage

In 1823 Dorothy Hives - a widow - gave birth to a daughter Frances in Hose

In 1825 Dorothy Hives - a widow- married Robert Lowe in Branston  and in later census years is listed as born in 1796 in Denton  https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:SGF3-MTB https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:VFTL-W5F and their  children  are listed with mothers maiden name Towers on the GRO Birth Index

I must admit that I coming round the view that Ann Towers was a sister of Dorothy and the family moved to Branston after her mother died in 1800 which may have been the reason Ann was not baptised :-\
