For some time I have been trying to find a marriage between John Bowman and Ann. John was baptised in Tuxford, Nottinghamshire, 17 Jul 1775 and the couple had 6 known children five of which were baptised in Tuxford. The first child John born 1796 is the only one I can not find a baptism for. John and his wife stayed in Tuxford and were buried here.
I am as sure as I can be that they did not marry in or around Tuxford and I can not find a suitable marriage in Nottinghamshire. This makes me think that may be Ann was not born in Nottinghamshire.
There is a marriage between John Bowman and Ann Jenkinson 30 Jan 1797 Harthill, Sheffield, this is just over the boarder from Nottinghamshire and would seem to be the correct name and time span. A very nice lady looked at her records on Sheffield records online and was able to tell me that John came from Worksop (Nottinghamshire).
There are no deaths for Bowmans in Harthill, neither are there any births on igi for Bowman's in Harthill.
Do you think this is my missing marriage?
