From a previous thread by Miggs191
It’s taken three years ! But I now know that Sarah Grace was on her third marriage when she married William Grace in Devizes. Prior to that it was Richard Chandler ( married in St Pancras London ) and prior to that Richard Sissons but strangely she gives her father’s name as Richard Mortimore batchelor ! When Richard Sissons dies in 1835 both she and Louisa are clearly named in a will. By the time it is settled she has already married the next one !
I’m now wondering if her mother was Maslen and she was base born or Mortimore was really her maiden name and she married into the Maslen family. I’ll probably never be able to work it out but if any one can shed any light I’d be very grateful.
When Sarah the aunt made her first marriage in 182
3 2 to Richard SISSONS, the image shows she had the surname MASLIN. She was a spinster. So that was her birth name.
The witnesses were Richard MASLIN and Jane MASLIN and possibly another Richard
HOOKER?EDIT Debra has this as Richard COOPER.
Above we see that Debra gives the marriage of Sarah's sister Jane as she married EVETT and her maiden surname was also MASLIN.
Therefore Jane had not previously been married to anyone MASLIN, but had daughters outside marriage whose surname was MASLIN. Is that right or not?
