The sig is similar - the couple were married by Mary's future father-in-law, if it is her. Oooh, why can't it say she was a widow?!

Of course, this may simply demonstrate that the Scammell and Morewood families knew each other and liked calling their daughters Ann.
Edward could well have had a brother or cousin who married Mary.

In the will, Thomas Scammell's father-in-law is Peter Banks, so we can count out Miss Banks!

We have no internet today and doing searches and using this site om my phone isn't easy. Whatever the name was when either you or Phoenix first mentioned the C place in Sussex is the name I meant.

What happened to the Ordnance Yard in Nova Scotia?
Is it possible that Mary's first marriage took place abroad?
