Hello:
Trying to push through a wall in regards to the marriage between a George Semly (sic) and Ann tummins (sic). Both family names have had many different spellings: Semley and Tummons, Tummings. Their children are all baptised in Royston beginning with:
William Semley B: 1817
Mary Semley B: 1826
Edward Semley
John Semley B: 1822
Thomas Semley B: 1824
Benjamin Semley B: 1829
Charles Semley B: 1835
Ann Semley B: 1834
Henry Semley B: 1830
It appears they are in Cudworth in the 1851 census.
any help is very much appreciated
Cheers

Thinking about the Chelsea Pensioner record, plus there is a very well documented tree on Ancestry, I am wondering whether the marriage was a military marriage? It appears that there is a George Semely listed as a Driver in the medal roll for the Battle of Waterloo - 1815.
