this woman is making me crazy!
mary powton b.1814 thornton le beans in the parish of north otterington, yorkshire. daughter of thomas powton and elizabeth walker.
she m.1836, leake to richard wilson steele (d.1842 bedale). they had two sons in bedale area: richard wilson (b.1838) and john william (1838-9).
mary then married george deighton in 1844 at bedale. they had 3 sons: john george (b.1846), william (b.1848) and charles (1850-1865).
the deighton family is in bedale in 1851. there is a widowed mary anne deighton b.1820 barnard castle, a hairdresser living in bishop auckland in 1861- i know this is her, as she has the three deighton sons born bedale with her. after this, she vanishes. i think her husband george died in 1860 auckland, though can't find the entry on GRO to check age. charles dies 1865 auckland. the other three surviving sons all become hairdressers and are traceable on census, mary isn't with them. though i can't see william in 1881 (he and john george are together in 1871). no deaths fit with age in durham 1861-1871 on GRO. there are two marriages in same period for auckland: 1863 to robert calvert (can't see this couple in 1871 census) and 1864 of mary anne deighton to anthony baxter- this is on FMP her father is joseph cornell.
can someone see mary after 1861 in bishop auckland?
