Too much info on your post...........

Better just to ask for the specific piece of info you seek.

I certainly wouldn't read - and digest - all you have posted, and I suspect many others feel the same

I put this up yesterday but have had no responses.
Does this mean nobody saw it or that nobody can find any information.
I'd be extremely grateful if someone was able to help.

I have succesfully tracked back my wife's ancestors to James Boatright c1822 - 1888 born Clerkenwell London - son of William Boatright.
I am struggling to find any details of William's wife Ann Maria/Mary, and would greatly appreciate some help. I have the following information.
On James Boatright's marriage record on Ancestry in 1847 it gives his father's name as William - occupation chaser (engraver apparently). The Witnesses are William Boatright and Mary Boatright presumably his wife.
On the 1851 census I have William Boatright age 52 - occupation engraver born Hammersmith Middlesex but his Wife is shown as Ann Maria Boatright age 50 born Holloway Middlesex.
I have Ann Maria's death certificate in 1864 age 63 Widow of William Boatright - engraver. So I am confident it is the same William Boatright.
There is a death Register entry March Quarter 1858 for a William Boatright so this appears to link in with the information on the death certificate.
There is an entry on the 1841 census for a William Boatright age 40 occupation chaser living in Clerkenwell but no sign of a wife or family.
There is also an IGI birth and christening extract for 1798 for a William Boatright Ebenezer Independent Hammersmith London England, parents also William Boatright and Mary. There are also IGI extracts for several other children either side of 1798 all with the same parents.
All this makes me confident that I am dealing with the right William Boatright.

Essentially, I am stuck trying to find any information on William's wife and if there are any other children other than James. The surname spelling changes quite a lot and I have tried alsorts of combinations. It's driving me round the bend, help please.
