NOTES

HUSBAND - Robert WASLING, Jr.

CHRISTENING: IGI; Batch No J107262 (extracted record)

MARRIAGE: IGI; Batch No M109042 (extracted record)

Mary Young was 37 when she married, 10 years older than her husband Robert, and would have been 47 when Ann was born, and 61 when Ann married.. It seems likely to me that Robert moved onto a farm in Anlaby some time between 1785 and 1788.

    

WIFE  -   Mary YOUNG

CHRISTENING: IGI; Batch No C109042 (extracted record)

    

CHILD 1 - Thomas WASLING

CHRISTENING: IGI; Batch No C109042 (extracted record)

    

CHILD 2 - Robert WASLING III

CHRISTENING: IGI; Batch No C109042 (extracted record)

    

CHILD 3 - Mary WASLIN

CHRISTENING: IGI; Batch No C109042 (extracted record)

  

CHILD 4 - Ann WASLIN

CHRISTENING: IGI; Batch K106742 (extracted record)

MARRIAGE: Benjamin JOHNSON bach. marr. Ann WASLING spinster, both of this parish, 29 March 1804, Sculcoates, ERY, UK banns by Richard Patrick, Witnesses: Mary Wasling, Sarah Smart, Robt Woolney (East Yorkshire Family History Society Parish Register Booklet Sculcoates Marriages, 1754/1813, p.026)

1851 Census, Sculcoates, folio 363: 7 Bank Side, Ann Johnson, widow, age 63, Beer retailer, born in Yorks. Anlaby

DEATH: Death Cert.: 17 Aug 1856 Ann Johnson, widow of Benjamin Johnson, aged 68

I have included the later details about Ann Wasling to confirm that she really is the daughter of Robert Wasling of Anlaby. I believe there are a couple of hints that her father is the same person as Robert Wasling of Keyingham; one that the christening dates of the five children are consistent, and two that one of the witnesses at Ann's wedding was Mary Wasling.

  

CHILD 5 - John WASLIN

CHRISTENING: IGI; Batch J106742 (extracted record)
