My ancestress Ann Holt (born 1798) married John Watson at Seaton Ross, East Yorkshire, on 15 Dec 1817.
There were two children - William Watson bp 21 Dec 1817 & Mary Watson bp 29 Oct 1820 - both baptisms were at Seaton Ross, the parents of the children were recorded as John and Ann and John was a labourer.
I know nothing more of John Watson.
Ann then had two Watson daughters: Elizabeth born & bp in the workhouse in 1823 and Sarah bp Harswell in 1830. Both girls were recorded as daughters of Ann Watson, spinster in 1823, servant woman in 1830.
In October 1832 Ann Watson married George Kell at Harswell - no marital status was recorded for either party. There were four children from the marriage and the couple lived at Holme-on-Spalding-Moor, where Ann died in April 1849.
I have never been able to pinpoint a death for John Watson as I know so little about him. However, I think he MAY have been the John Watson bp Seaton Ross in 1782, son of John & Sarah Watson. In which case, he was quite a bit older that Ann, and presumably reluctant to marry - bp of first child just 6 days after the marriage.;)
Please don't waste any time researching Ann, or her three sets of children, as I do have details on them already.
Thanks for looking.
