We have no details about Isaac and Ann's marriage. Thanks for the William family new information, didn't have anything more than his birth.
I will ignore the Mary Ann to YSA then.

Thank you, yes it is her father's death. Interesting possibility that she went to USA. Will try to follow that up. The only thing we know about her mother Ann Hurd, is her name, so if there is more someone can find we would love it.

Thank you all, this last lot is the right family, our line is Thomas, so it is his sister that we are looking at. Seems like we can't tell which marriage is hers. The names have continued down the generations alright except for Abraham.
Just to be confusing she also had a brother Hezekiah , so I am picking that the Mary Ann whose father had that name was most likely a relation.
Thomas and Hezekiah came to New Zealand.
We have looked at the census and found one for Bennet Lowry (son) that had a John Hunt ,uncle living with him, but then the other Mary Ann Hunt could easily have had a brother John too.

Margaret is looking for the daughter of Isaac and Ann- so the one I posted is not the one Margaret is looking for.

Well married before 1837 the marrige records won't show a father's name

Have you looked on an census for her using the mans surname to see if the age matches up

Margaret Report 16 Mar 2018 04:41

Mary Ann Hunt born 1 Oct 1807, parents Isaac Hunt and Ann Hurd (Herd), Falmouth Cornwell England. There are 3 probable marriages of Mary Ann Hunt in Falmouth 1830.
1 to Benjamin Strongman, probably not her as we found that one's parents names and were different, quite possibly a relation though.
2 to Benjamin Osler.
3 to Bennett Lowry.
or non of these, maybe she didn't marry or married later in life.
Is there anyone who can find which of these 2 Mary Ann's have the correct parents for us please.Thank you.
