Your problem is there are four of them, all with the same middle initial, all born Blackburn in the space of 16 years. There are only four possible marriages for the one you refer to ~ but none of them in Blackburn, and the nearest being about 10-15 miles away. I note she was born (it appears) before the parent married so was she sent for adoption?...did her name get changed??
