I came across the Bristol Wills index a few months ago whilst looking for some pesky peple called Ariel! At the time I'd not touched this part of my tree for ages, so only looked for a couple of my 'names' - another reason why doing this weekly review is so great!
I think I might ask the local reg office to look at the 1851 death cert and I'll buy it if it says Marion was the widow of John (whatever his occ!), and investigate the will too. (will look harder at the Bristol Mercury in 1842 as well)
I'm not that confident these are the right people though (here what you say, Mary, about Marion's age) and just wish I could find the daughter, Laura Louisa (or whatever that name says) ANYWHERE else! I see there are a lot of Bristol marriages on the pilot site with fathers names, but that isn't helping me with this specific problem.
