I've checked the National Burial Index but nothing.

Are you sure his wife was Hannah OWEN? (or did she have more than one possible surname?)

Marriages Dec 1846 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Falknor William Windsor 6 777
Falknor William Winslow 6 777
Grace Martha Winslow 6 777
Lee Thomas Winslow 6 777
Owen Hannah Winslow 6 777 <<<
Smith Eliza Winslow 6 777
Tims Elisha Winslow 6 777 <<<

I'm doing this from memory, Merry, as it's best mate's tree, but I think we got the cert & managed to follow Hannah a bit further.


Why do you think it wasn't Owen?

Oh lol! Because I saw this one:

Marriages Mar 1842
Colton Sarah Winslow 6 493
FRENCH Hannah Winslow 6 493
HORWOOD James Winslow 6 493
ILLING George Winslow 6 493

PITTAM Hannah Winslow 6 493
REED Keziah Winslow 6 493
STOCKWELL Martha Wycombe 6 493

Maybe he married twice and the first wife may not have even been a Hannah!

Good old phonetic spelling. Timbs and Timms are under separate listings.

It looks as if his first wife was Sarah Colton, who died with her baby in Dec 1844.

I'll have to check to see whether Ros has the cert for this!

Thank you, Merry!!
