I am once again helping a lady through our local library. We know that Maria was with a gentleman called Thomas Clark. 1) We are unable to find a marriage and 2) we are unable to find proof of parentage. I have found on Ancestry and lancs bmd a John Bretnor and a Betty/Elizabeth who could possibly be the parents, but not proved. Many thanks
