Hi
Thanks for your help, We have already traced the marriage of Jonathan Kirk and Mary Stoker. However I believe that there were 2 Jonathan Kirk's living in Clayworth at that time-possibly Uncle and Nephew who were having children at the same time. I have visited the Retford library and the original parish records (on fiche) clearly state the name Ann as the mother to several children and Mary as the mother to the other children.
