To date, I have always thought my Gt Gt Gt Grandmother, Hannah came from Marston Moretaine in Bedfordshire as her place of birth on all the census records from 1851 to 1881 state place of birth as "Marson", Bedfordshire.
There is a christening for a Hannah WALTON, dau. of William & Mary, on the IGI for 13 October 1811 at Marston Moretaine which is in the right time frame and ties in with the name of her 1st born, William Walton CAWTHORN..............
Hannah would have married my Gt Gt Gt Grandfather, Joseph CAWTHORN of Emneth, in about 1830-1833, as their first child, William **Walton**, was baptised at Upwell St Peter's on 14 August 1834 + their next 2 children in 1836 & 1840.
BUT I cannot find any trace of their marriage - this is one of my brickwalls :(
Any advice, suggestions gratefully received, as always.
