thanks Maureen, I was just about to post this

From Ancestry PR, which matches up with Thomas Robinson and Margaret Priddle’s gro ref.

Thomas Robinson - Gent
Age: Full Age
Estimated Birth Year: not shown
Spouse Name: Margaret Priddle
Spouse Age: Full Age
Record Type: Marriage
Event Date: 13 Nov 1841
Parish: Saint Mark, Myddelton Square
County: London
Borough: Islington
Father Name: Thomas Robinson - Gent
Spouse Father Name: Thomas Priddle – builder

I’m beginning to wonder if Thomas met and married ‘his’ Caroline while stationed in Barbados????

Ann Mary ROBINSON's baptismal record shows her birth as :
July 19,1849
I'd really be tempted by this one:
FreeBMD
Births Sep 1849
ROBINSON Ann May Clerkenwell 3 74???? (not sure I agree with this-the image looks like it might be 84. Can someone look?

Also-that 1841 Clerkenwell marriage for Thomas ROBINSON was to Margaret PRIDDLE.

Maureen

Have you actually got the MC? Because the image of the PR book shows that on 27 Oct 1841, Caroline Standart Hunter married John William Mortimer.

If your MC shows differently, then I can only assume that when the records were copied for the register office, they were mistranscribed.

If you want to pm me with your email address, I'll send you the link.

hi det
you have got the right person of edwin robinson he is my great grandfather is father was thomas robinson and mother's name was caroline slandert hunter thomas was a sergeant in the rayol fusluer.
I am getting frustrated with this lady to/
I found the gro ref no the marraige index records caroline slandert hunter married thomas robinson 1841 in clerkenwell vol 3 page 72.
regards susan

good point Shirley!! I don't have access to that.

This could be Annie’s bap

Ann Mary Robinson
Record Type: Baptism Date: 22 Apr 1853 (b 19 Jul 1849)
Father's Name: Thomas Robinson
Occ – Sergeant of the Militia Staff
Mother's Name: Caroline Robinson
Parish: Saint Pancras Parish Church
Borough: Camden County: Middlesex
Residence – Dukesfield Terrace

This is getting very frustrating! I can’t seem to find a birth registration for an Ann Mary Robinson, so if anyone else feels up to the challenge, feel free. If that could be found, you could order that and it would give her mother’s maiden or possibly former name if she was married before.

I understand where you got the gro ref for Caroline Standert Hunter and Thomas Mortimer – but the marriage from PR I gave you shows that particular Caroline married John Mortimer.
