Help needed please for a long-standing problem!
My ancestor Ann appears to have had at least three marriages. As far as careful research can tell, her brief history in Brixham is as follows:-
16 June 1805 baptised - d. of Thomas ELLIOTT and Amy nee KENNARD.
?? date - married ..........LEWIS, who then died leaving her a widow. Apparently no children.
3 June 1831 married William GILBERT (batchelor); two daughters: Mary Ann bapt. 3 December 1831 and Emma bapt. 13 April 1834.
1841 Census - Ann and two daughters living in Milton Street Brixham. No William (possibly dead).
24 June 1846 - widowed Ann married Henry TREBY; two children: John William Tucker Treby 1848 - 1857 and Sarah Ann Treby born 1849.
1851 - 1871 Census - Treby family living in Milton Street.
1877 - Death of Ann Treby.
I need to find the marriage of Ann to Mr Lewis to confirm all this. (An Anne Elliott married Peter MOORE in Marlborough in 1821 and an Anne MOORE married John LEWIS in Newton St. Petrock in 1828, but yet another marriage, miles away, seems to be stretching it a bit, especially as Ann was only 15 at the time!).
Any help/thoughts/advice please?
Thank you,
Melbell.
