There is a tree on Ancestry that has William's wife as Elizabeth Hurt but doesn't have any sources.

If this is the family in 1841, the birth cert of the youngest child would give MMN:


Name:Elizabeth Tilney
Age:45
Estimated birth year:abt 1796
Gender:Female
Where born:Norfolk, England
Civil Parish:Welborne
Hundred:Forehoe
County/Island:Norfolk

William Tilney 50
Elizabeth Tilney 45
Hannah Tilney 15
Elizabeth Tilney 12
Sarah Tilney 9
Frances Tilney 6
William Tilney 2

Births Mar 1839
Tilney William Forehoe 13 123

Edit: not sure now if the birth cert would help as William seems to be on the 1851 with mother as Susan Tilney, unmarried.

Ah thank you Sylvia and Maddie. I am doing a family history for a friend and had the surname Hurt, so maybe that one is wrong.

I am looking to find the surname of Williams wife. he was born about 1791 I think Welbourne Norfolk. I am not sure when he got married either, but has a daughter Susan born about 1818 in Shipdham Norfolk. I think his wife's name is Elizabeth, as I think I have got them in 1841 census. If anyone could shed some light I would be most grateful. Thank you.
