Thank you for your replies.
Louisa Maud I did find that and hence wanting to find 1841 census. I found her marriage to a George Rutland but  in the census his wife was Hannah and Hannah in 1851 with her parents James and Mary. I have not found a BP for a Hannah so wondering if Mary Ann and Hannah the same person.

Dawnish I think I will cry now because they are missing in 1861census for the same reason

Ta muchly both of you

P.S. I have not been able to find her in GRO and a sibling Alice M born abt 1849

Thanks Louisa Maud and jonw.

Louisa Maud, here's an odd thing. The sons are on GRO, so would love to know why the daughters weren't. I thought once knowing the Mary's maiden name, finding the girls would be a piece of cake. Sighhh

Sure appreciate both of you for your work
