Hello Eilleen

Looks like your Annie Exton gave evidence in Court.

"Mrs Exton" newspaper search ...

Lincolnshire Chronicle, 5th March 1897

LINCOLN CITY POLICE
Thursday. - Before the Mayor (T. Wallis, Esq.) and W. W. Richardson, Esq.

Fredk Busby, labourer, lodging at 2, Thorngate, was Summoned for using obscene language in St. Martins-street, on the 25th ult —P.c. Andrew and Mrs. Exton gave evidence proving the charge.—Defendant said someone threw a bucketful of water out of a window, and as it fell on him it made him swear. ...

It seems he was also in default of his 10 shilling fine and apparently sent to gaol for 7 days.

1901 Census, your Annie Exton lived at 29 St Martins Street, Lincoln.

I wonder if a Summons, Court record and a Police File survive somewhere, even a precise date of Birth or a snippet of info about Annie or her background, might be useful?

Lincolnshire Archives
Lincolnshire Constabulary 1837 to 1994
An extensive list of the types of Police records under "CONSTAB" no dates.

I don't know what Police recorded about witnesses (newspaper says Mrs Exton), re Birth date and birth places and if that survives or not?

Archives might have some NC Chapel Registers of Birth covering 1850 to 1860 to look at?

If anyone wonders, Annie Exton repeatedly claimed to be born Gosberton.

Looking at Moore children in the Census in the Parish of Gosberton area (born around the time Annie Exton nee Moore was born) to see if there are other unregistered / not indexed Moore Births.

[BushInn1746]

Not looked at any more 1861 Census for Moore children born at places in the Gosberton, Donington, Quadring, toward Fosdyke locality 1850 to 1860, to see whether their Births were registered or missing on GRO Indexes in the Spalding Registration District.

 ----------
The Parish of Gosberton administratively was larger than Gosberton Parish it seems.
 ----------
I had this with an ancestor of mine on his 1872 Marriage Certificate he stated he was a Widower and from the Parish of Bowdon and we discovered that Bowdon Parish (where Bowdon Church was) was in the Parish of Bowdon, but the Parish of Bowdon included other townships and 25 years ago searching the 1871 Census on rolls of microfilm was a nightmare.
 ----------
There seemed to be Moore family events at Northorpe in the Donington / Gosberton Registers.
 ----------
Noticed 3 William Moore burials at Donington Lincs:-
1823, Feb 4th, William Moore of Meeting House Lane, 74 years.
1830, Nov 3rd, William Moore, Northorpe Donington, 23.
1833, April 25th, William Moore, Northorpe Donington, Age Inf't.
 ----------
There was a Farm on the road out of  Donington toward Gosberton (before Quadring) known as Workhouse Farm, alias The Limes.
