You'll find a 1795 baptism for a Mary JOHNSON at Navenby here http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Search/frameset_search.asp?PAGE=igi/search_IGI.asp&clear_form=true

EDIT: The 1851 census gives John's birthplace as WADDINGTON ... it also gives Mary's age as 47, suggesting a later birth than you said.  Also there was a 7 year old daughter which would be rather a young daughter for someone born in 1795.

There was a Mary JOHNSON bap at Navenby late 1803 too.

HI Geoff
I have had a look on Census ahd i think you may be right looks like she was 47 and not 57 like it says
which would make her born about 1804
May have a better chance of finding her family now
Thanks Jane
