« on: Monday 30 November 09 11:09 GMT (UK) »
Hi, Wonder if anyone can help.  In one of my trees I have a marriage certificate for a Ann Simpson married to William Slingsby in Sheffield 1860.  Her father is named as Thomas Simpson a scale cutter. Thinking to trace anne simpsons family I sent for her birth certificate which has just arrived.  This is where the mystery starts.  Her mothers name is given as Mary Ann Simpson but the name, and occupation of the father has got a line through it. Making me think that she was illigitimate.  The date was may 1839. I can only think that her mother and father when they eventually married both had the same surname. But looking through the marriages on free bmd from 1939 onwards cant find a marriage for them.  I found a marriage for a Mary Ann Simpson and a Thomas Anderson in Knaresbrough in 1939 but obvously that can,t be them.  Does anyone have any other explanation for this?  Many thanks Pat       :-\    Hope this makes sense.

Cheers

 my thoughts

Anne could well be the illigitimate child fo Mary Ann Simpson who went on to marry Thomas Anderson and when Anne married using her birth name they could have asked her for her fathers name and she couldhave simply said Thomas.
 
who were the witnesses on the marriage cert ?

Mary Ann Simpson was born circa 1813 Sheffield then (according to the census)
Anne was born circa 1839
Mary Ann would have been 26
