Leeds marriage query 1859
« on: Friday 26 December 25 22:24 GMT (UK) »
Hello,

I have the marriage certificate for William Townrow and Mary Ann Baines at the Brunswick Wesleyan Chapel in 1859. William was 50 and Mary Ann was 39.

The Townrow's lived and died in Normanton, Notts. Mary Ann was born in Moorhouse, Notts according to the 1881 census.

William and Mary Ann lived in Normanton.

I can't find any other info on William or Mary Ann.

Back to the Leeds query, my mother in law was told by the Normanton Vicar  ( in approx 2021) that there was a reason they married in Leeds, apparently lots of the Baines family married in Leeds, but she can't remember the reason? Any ideas?

Many thanks
