Hmm ... this is odd. I can't find a Sutton St Mary, but there are a dozen or more villages around Sutton Bridge with "St" in their names (inc Sutton St James and Sutton St Edmund), and with the Timby family having Norfolk connections, Sutton St Mary must be around there. I can't find a Sutton around Gainsborough on the OS map.
