	I wonder if the clever 'genies' can help me. According to the parish register, my 3 times great grandfather John HALL, married Martha WHYMENT in Crowland Linconshire. October 11 1796. He was a widower and she was not of that parish. There is a Martha WEMOND, both 1752 in Gretton, Northamptonshire which is about 30 miles form Crowland who another 'searcher' thinks is the right Martha. My requests to the other person have gone un unanswered, so I cannot verify where the information came from. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks :-S

Member Since: July 2005 Posts: 12,339 Send Message	That Martha would have been 44 when she married, maybe a bit late for a first marriage? Not impossible though.

	If she had a son Samuel Hall 1816 wouldn't she have been 64 if she was born 1752?? Maryb
