The ADEAN family appear to have connections to Bristol - so it might be well worth seeing if Mary's first marriage took place there. Lots of people married in Bristol from the surrounding areas. This has happened in my family tree.

Thank you for your very informative reply. Some of which I knew and some new to me. I descend from William Jones the younger born abt 1716 and his wife Hester. I have five children from the marriage and my line is via their son Richard born abt 1749 who went on to marry Betty Awre in 1775.
Betty Awre was the daughter of John Awre and Ann Wade, Ann being the daughter of John Wade and Elizabeth Lane who was the daughter of a John Lane and Sarah Davies. I am trying to establish if there is a relationship between the John Lane who married Mary Jones(Adean) and the father of Elizabeth Lane who married John Wade.
I do not think Mary Adean married William Jones the younger, The dates of various events bears this out.
I do have access to Ancestry but had not picked up the Gloucester Wills on the site but will pursue the lead.
Once again my thanks.
Tony

? not sure about the dates as William JONES must have been born c1720+ to have married and had children. The date given was - Mary ADEAN (Widow) married William JONES (Widower) - 19 February 1738 - so assume was William her step-son….

? Is William JONES who married Mary ADEANE in 1839, William JONES (Jnr) and not (Snr)

as William JONES of Awre Will 1744 just mention his son William and wife Mary

Looking at the Gloucestershire Marriage Index CD pre 1800 registers

Not sure if this helps re locations/surname spelling…. all DURSLEY -

Hannah ADEANE married Edward POINTING at 4 February 1712
Hannah ADEAN married Richard ELLIOTT - 30 December 1745
Samuel A'DEAN married Martha WILLIS - 6 September 1774

Looking at Awre baptisms: John & Mary ADEAN appear to be having children around that time

1723 - John - father John, mother's name not stated
1726 - Mary - father John, mother, Mary

Burial at Awre - 1726, John Adeane

Mary Adean widow marriage in Awre

Mary Adean described as a widow married William Jones a widower of Wollastone (sic) on 19 Feb 1738/1739 in Awre(Marriage Allegation and PR). Can anyone find an Adean husband for Mary. Mary was born about 1685 so I would image her marrying about 1705 Mary married again in 1746 following the death of William to John Lane and was buried in Awre 24 Oct 1750
