Looking at that 1841 image, he is a Gunner, 9 Battalion, Royal Artillery.

Would have thought that William in North Stoneham 1841 was yours, with Mother Betty, as Elizabeth on Baptism...

Thanks SyviainCanada, I had this info and did wonder if it was my William. The fact that he is a trainee in the dockyard makes me feel that this is the one. William was some form of mariner and worked in Cheshire on the ferries there. Now to work backwards and see how thing fit in together. Thanks, Dorothy

Hi Maddie, so the marriage was in 1770 between Parrington and Hatcher or Hutcher and Elizabeth D Parrington was their daughter born 1791. So is the Lavington a mis write of Parrington . No wonder that I have had such difficulties in getting anywhere. I am really grateful for your help. Thanks Dorothy

Wow what lots of replies. I have most of William and Mary's info from their move to Cheshire but prior to this they both just seemed to materialise from fresh air. I am very grateful and will put the info in my tree. I hope that I can ask you that if you discover any more info you will let me know. Thanks a million, Dorothy

?? Probably the same death as North Stoneham was in the South Stoneham Reg. District, just that local parish records are showing the age which was not given in GRO records at that time.

There is Marriage & Death Cert for William on Ancestry...do you have these? If not I can send them to you this afternoon. No father given for William on Mar Cert so looks like he was illegitimate. Interestingly, one of the Witnesses to Marriage is Rose Ann Ellen Kinslow so Rose Ann Ellen seem to be Family names making the death found by Andy a possibility.
