Mary Ann Allen
« on: Tuesday 19 August 25 15:55 BST (UK) »
On 7 July 1863 at Histon William Gawthroup married Mary Ann Allen (father recorded as James)

the 1881 census records Mary Ann's birth as 1842 in Somersham.

Can anyone see details of her parents?

There is a James who is a farmer in 1851.

He has 4 daughters one Mary A and one Eliza. 

One of the witnesses was Eliza so possible.

Did Mary Ann have a son Moses?  If so this might be useful.

Moses      1866
Louisa      1867

Have you checked freebmd for a birth for Mary then used GRO online to find her mothers maiden name?

Have you looked for her on the 1851 census?

If Moses is missing from the Gawthorp family in 1881 I would say you have found the parents of Mary Ann you were looking for.

What do you mean they didn’t co-habit?  Are they not with the children in 1871/1881?
