Find Ancestors

I am trying to trace Sarah Ann Sumner (possibly) Summer born abt 1822 at Pilsgate nr Stamford (shown as either Lincolnshire or Northants). She married Henry Perkins in 1842. I have census data for 1851 through to 1881 when Sarah was widowed. I cannot trace her before or after these census entries which are all in Great Ponton, nr Grantham Lincs. The marriage entry shows her as resident In Great Ponton at the time she married, with fathers name shown as John. Can anyone find any trace of her before 1842 or after 1881?

Have you looked for marriages or deaths for her between 1881 and 1891?

What was John's profession on the marriage certificate?

Have searched for deaths and found nothing for any date in either Lincolnshire or Nottingham, where some of her children ended up.

Forgot to add that that I am referring to a transcript of the parish register for the marriage which doesn't show occupations.

I have trawled the Great Ponton census entries for 1841 for trace of Sarah without finding any, so can only presume she was not in the parish at the time of the census.

Notes
¦Richard and Sarah were living at Thorpe when Richard and John were born but had moved to Kelby when James arrived. They were also there for the birth of son Thomas however the register gives his mother's name as Anne but no record of Sarah's burial and a remarriage have been found therefore this may just be a clerical error.

Notes
¦Creeton Bishop's Transcripts have two Johns buried, 10.12.1683 and 15.6.1684. The other John could have been the son of this John maybe the son baptised in 1675 whose name is illegible in the transcripts.

Ann,
Thanks for the Perkins info, I think I have most of it, but I will be checking it carefully for anything new.
