Mary Downes m Job Turner in Badby, Northamptonshire 1789
« on: Tuesday 06 February 24 16:05 GMT (UK) »
These are my 4x great grandparents. I have traced Job Turner back several generations but I have had no luck tracing Mary Downes. The marriage states 'married by license' both of the parish of Badby. Does not say if she is a spinster or widow.

I have searched variations on the surname Downes, looked at surrounding parishes, tried to find a Mary marrying someone with the surname Downes a few years earlier. No Luck - I am stumped!

Please can anyone help or suggest where I look next?
Thanks

The first daughter was Catherine, this often indicates it's the name of the maternal grandmother.

Second daughter being Mary named for her mother.

There is a baptism for a Mary Downs  27 June 1762 at Ryhall  to a Thomas and  Catherine Downs.

It's 55 miles away or there abouts.
