Hello,
I've tried, and failed, to locate a marriage for my Gx5 aunt Mary Ann Bowin/Bowen. She was born 1806 in Woodbridge Suffolk to Frederick & Frances Bowin but the parents were residents of Hull, Yorkshire mainly and they were only briefly in Suffolk whilst Frederick was stationed there (East Yorks Militia it says on baptism record). They were back in Hull by the time of the birth of their next child.
She appears to have married Joseph Rankin but where and when I don't know. They are together on the 1841 census in Monkwearmouth Shore, Durham. Joseph is a Mariner. They are still there in 1851 at Back Church Street with a niece living with them. The niece, wrongly written as Brown, is Elizabeth Bowin the daughter of Mary's brother Henry. Joseph Rankin is a witness to Elizabeth's first marriage in 1857 when she was only 16.
Any help would be greatly appreciate
Regards, Claire
