If Hannah died in 1838 then a re-marriage would have taken place between then and 1841 when Mary appears on the census. That's 3 years to find Mary, court her and then drag her to the altar.

I've got the begger on Lancashire BMD: William Walton married 1838 to Mary Greenwood, St Chad's, Rochdale.

Well he didn't hang around, did he after hannah's death in 1838. You were right Allan asap with 4 kiddies on his hands. lol

Snap! You beat me to it by a minute.

That marriage is on the IGI Pilot website - no date shown but Mary's father was Eli Greenwood and Johns father was also John

I get Mary Greenwood on Online Parish Clerk Project baptised at St Chad's 3 Nov 1794, parents: Daniel Greenwood & Ann.

Fingers crossed, mystery solved. Thanks Carole and Allen.

The date was 28th May 1838 St Chads and shows fathers as John & Eli so you have a different Mary Greenwood
