Did Mary Grimshaw ever get married ?
My friend is doing the ancestry of the grimshaws but has come to a halt when searching for a marriage for Mary Grimshaw that’s if she ever married or where she died any help gratefully received Baptism: 13 May 1804 St Katharine, Blackrod, Lancashire, England
Mary Grimshaw - 2nd Dr. of William Grimshaw & Mary (formerly Wellsby), his ' Born: 19 Apr Abode: Blackrod Maternal Grandfather: Jno. Wellsby of Hulton Register: Baptisms 1783 - 1807, Page 160, Entry Hi she had a son see details Baptism: 8 Feb 1824 St Mary the Virgin, Deane, Lancashire, England William Grimshaw - Son of Mary Grimshaw, Spinster Abode: Blackrod Baptised by: Thos. Airey Offg. Minister Register: Baptisms 1822 - 1833, Page 54, Entry 430. We are trying to find out if she actually ever married or where she died or her residence later in her life ? Any help please there are a few Grimshaw marriages but because the name is quite common it’s more difficult to say one his a definite . ? Thanks all |

Lancs OPC also has a baptism at All Saints, Wigan, 3 Oct 1824, John Grimshaw, base son of Mary Grimshaw, born 18 Jul, abode Blackrod.
So there seem to have been two Mary Grimshaws of Blackrod having "illegitimate" children at the same time. |

You could start by going through the Mary Grimshaw marriages from 1824 onwards on Lancs OPC looking at the ones in the right area and try to figure out whether any of them could be your Mary.

There are a few potential marriages in the Wigan area but as yet can’t find any around Blackrod ?

So, make a list of the marriages, then look to see what children came from those marriages and hopefully find the families in 1841/51 and see if any of the Marys look like the one you are after. Hopefully you should be able to eliminate some.

You said none of the marriages were around Blackrod, but you should thnk about where those babies were baptised too.
