Sarah asked me a couple of questions by pm. I've replied explaining where I got the IGI info. She already knows about freebmd.

That 1851 marriage for Charles Hunt looks like the only one to me.



Looks like there was an Eliza & an Elizabeth.

1861 - Church Street, Spacote.

Mary is a widow, charwoman
John - worsted stocking trader
Can't read Mary's occupation - does not look like scholar though.

Because the tree on Ancestry has his wife as Mary Smith - and the same tree shows him dying in 1852 in Hinkley.

Was John Bray's wife Mary Smith?

There's a tree on Ancestry showing John Bray 1800 - 1852. No details on exact date - just Hinkley.

As ages were rounded down +/-5 years in 1841, meaning that sometimes they are shown as younger, Mrs Grumpy's 1841 is more likely to be your lad.
