Maria's maiden name would appear to be Briste.
She married James Kempster in 1840

Thank you Pam, I must have had his marriages in the wrong order. The 1871 cenus appears to be correct. His last marriage was in 1874 and I have those details on 1881 census.

I do appreciate your help.

The marriage details and death re Elizabeth are correct. The 1851 appears to be correct excpt for his age.

Thanks you all.

In 1871 he appears to have Maria as his wife and some children by the name of Kempster with them-her first family perhaps?

If the death that Pam found is your Elizabeth then the 1851 census above could be Him, was he a master Tailor?

James and Ann are his parents. Can anyone find him on 1851 with Elizabeth, his wife.
Thank you.

I am not sure, He was born 1822 and the Maria in question was Maria Kempster.

I am trying to locate George Mayson b. 1822 in Holbeach. He has been married at least three times. In 1841 he could be with wife Maria. In 1851 he should be with wife Elizabeth. I do know he married for a third time in 1874.

Many thanks
