Richard and Maria Bacon in 1851:

Court New Town Row, Birmingham, Warwickshire, England

Richard Bacon Head Married Male 36 1815 Spoon Dresser Birmingham, Warwickshire, England

????

The only marriage I can find in Birmingham for a Richard Bacon and Maria is to a Maria Heely, not Carr or Eggington as per the GRO birth refs I posted:

Name: Richard Bacon
Gender: Male
Marriage Date: 15 Mar 1835
Marriage Place: Harborne, St Peter, England
Parish as it Appears: Harborne, St Peter
Search Photos: Search for 'Harborne, St Peter' in the UK City, Town and Village Photos collection
Spouse: Maria Huly

Maria is a spinster, Richard a Bachelor. Her name could be Huly or Heely.

I think this marriage is correct.

EDIT: See later posts. I believe Richard Bacon first married Maria Heely, and after her death, he married Maria Eggington (mother of most of his children including John Bacon).

It looks like Richard and Maria's daughter Mary might have married a Richard Whittingham, possible related to the Alice Whittingham that brother John Bacon married, the parents of Florence Elizabeth?

if the above is correct, with the Whittinghams born in Staffordshire, then Richard Whittingham is Alice Whittingham's father as well as Richard jr's.
