I can only find one Marriage for Nicholas in Gloucester and that is to Elizabeth Allin

Name: Nicholas Trotman
Event Type: Marriage
Marriage Date: 10 Oct 1763
Parish: Hawkesbury, Gloucestershire, England
Parish as it Appears: Hawkesbury
Spouse: Elizabeth Allin
Register Type: Bishop's Transcripts

Often people called Elizabeth were known as either Betty or Betsy so could still be the right Mother.

Researching:

Martha Trotman b. 1764 married Henry Lewis eventually and I have all the records of her marriage to Henry in August 1822, her burial in 1825, but I cannot find her mother, for years I thought it was Elizabeth Allen b.1747-1808 the wife of Nicholas Trotman b.1734-1780, but it now appears that is wrong as Nicholas's daughter Martha died when she was 12. another child of theirs they also called Martha but she married John Collins. Can anyone help me with this search please.

Keith.
