    Sorry it's a bit long winded

    I have William Jones married to Elizabeth Rockley or Rockby (probably Rockley) 24 Nov 1796 Hoveringham, Notts (IGI batch M048662)

    1841 census Hoveringham HO107; Piece 866; Folio: 4; Page: 4 has William Jones (transcribed as James) with Mary Jones.

    NBI has a burial for Elizabeth Jones in Hoveringham 21 Oct 1820

    IGI has a marriage of William Jones to Mary Rockley 14 Jan 1822 at Hoveringham ( batch M048661)

    I think Elizabeth and Mary Rockley were possibly sisters as there are baptisms on the IGI (batch 47453 Lowdham, Notts) for both of them 14 Oct 1774

    Death of William Jones Dec qr Southwell 15 / 449 corresponds with NBI burial Hoveringham 14 Nov 1847.

    Mary Jones nee Rockley is with her daughter Elizabeth Culley nee Rockley in 1851 Gunthorpe, Nottinghamshire HO107; Piece: 2134; Folio: 7; Page: 7

    Elizabeth Culley nee Rockley has a baptism1802 on the IGI batch 54042 (no father named)

    I have found 2 more children born to Mary Rockley in Lowdham, Notts (IGI batch C047451)
    Miles 1796 and William 1807.

    So that’s Miles 1796
    Elizabeth 1802
    William 1807.

    Do you reckon it’s the same Mary?

    Busy girl!!

    Forgot to say, Mary was born in Lowdham

    Well, Mary is a very common name - all my major identification problems have involved Marys. There could easily be 2 Mary Rockleys, maybe cousins or niece/aunt, so you need to see if you can eliminate this possibility first.

      IGI has a Mary Rockley baptised 1791 in Lowdham. If she was born 1791 (or earlier) she'd be old enough to give birth in 1807 if not earlier.

        OK I accept that one but not Miles born in 1796.

        Elizabeth was definitely hers as she was living with her in 1851.
