Ela -I think you need to get the marriage cert from 1875 for Annie's marriage to Tom Exton which will give her fathers name and occupation and witnesses might help if they are siblings still calling themselves Blancher

Ann Moore appears 1871 as servant 15 b Donington to Belt family in Fosdyke
( a fly in the ointment is that an Ann Blancher married in 1880 Sleaford though there are 3 brides to 2 grooms!) )but I dont believe in a coindidence so great that all the first names and ages and places of birth match and feel it is the same family

Her siblings appear to have kept the name Blancher in years up to 1901 so the change is a mystery

this looks like Ann Blancher's marriage

My Great great granny Annie Exton nee Moore,

imformation I have is, she married in Boston, Lincs in 1874.
he father was named as William Moore, a labourer, it does not state whether he was dead or a live.
on 1881 census she say's she came from Gosberton, Lincs ,and gives her age as 23 yrs,
any help in knocking down this brickwall would help me sleep at night,
big thank you .
regards Ela.
