I have recently come across a surname in my partner's tree that stumped me completely, according to FreeBMD the name no longer existed after 1880.
Can anyone help??
Thomas OSSOP marr Ann Welby in 1798, they had only 1 child (I can find) in 1799 Mary Ann OSSOP and Thomas was in the 13th Light Dragoons from 1800-1816 and fought in the Battle of Waterloo.
After 1816 I cannot find him, cannot find any more children, or his parents. I also would like to know the meaning behind the name OSSOP but cant find that either.
The last known OSSOP was Lenton OSSOP died 1880 aged 83, was this Mary Ann's brother?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You asked in your first post if he was Mary Ann's brother - I replied that he had different parents

Sorry Rosie, I posted this message on rootschat before I found it on familysearch.

I have a whole bundle of Lincolnshire fiche. This is from one I've just looked at on a lightbox (not easy) ...
Marriage Index of Lincolnshire Holland West Deanery 1700-1753 Vol 16
OSSOP Ann Wid 1752 03 10 BIC PARKER Richard
(BIC = Bicker)
... I can get the old fiche machine out and look through the rest if you'd like me to.

FreeREG has the 03 May 1798 Marriage as Thomas OSSAP, Bachelor of Bourne.
There are so many variations of that Surname eg Assop/Hassop/Ausop
Having said that there is a Burial for a ANN Ossop 14 Apr 1848 Kirton in Holland
Age 77, abode Kirton
Birth c 1771
Anc has her as Ann Olcop c 1771 on 1841 Census.
Have you seen the image of Marys 1818 Marriage?
She would be under age so hopefully would have extra info.
