Christine,

I cannot confirm either couple you have mentioned as I have no information on the couple really apart from the census I have come across as I have moved up the generations. I do think John and Maria are the right couple though as that is what is showing on the census. I have some information on some children and their descendants but the females of the family are proving more hard to find. I am also baffled as to who the John and Mary are now, maybe they are connected in some way, who knows!!

Thanks for your help :-)

Vicki,
Could you post the censuses that you have found him in?
Are there any children showing, that you could obtain the birth certificates to confirm mother's maiden name?
How did you arrive at him if you do not know anything else about him?
Thanks

Added:
From 1841 census, this birth looks likely:
Births Jun 1840
Hickling Elizabeth Melton Mowbray 15 192
