Hi,

My 3 x gt grandmother Mary married Charles Townsend assume sometime before 1826, as daughter Ann was born about 1827. Marys place of birth on the censuses is given as Blaisdon. Her age varies, the death registration has her aged 96 born about 1787, censues 1791-1795.

The family lived in the Westbury on Severn area. She's not the Mary Bruton who married the other Charles Townsend, they also lived in the same area and are listed on opposite pages on the 1841 census.

Class HO107
Piece 369
Book 5
Folio 38
Page 5

I see there is a Mary Preddy widow who married a Charles Townsend Westbury on Severn 1817. I've been unable to find out Mary Preddy's maiden name and who the first husband was.

Many thanks.
