Hi Celia, Not too far away in Wavendon BKM I have Martha PAYNE marrying John MABLEY in 1788. too early for your present research but you may find a connection one day.

The four were all children of farmer/grazier William PAYNE and Charlotte (nee ARIS): William bn 1830/1 John bn 1835/6 married someone abt 1863 who died before 1871 after having 3 children, name so far unknown Charlotte bn 1838/9 Mary bn 1841/2 Parents William and Charlotte had come over to Bucks from Northants (he from Boddington, she from Lois Weedeon, where they married in 1827) Son William stayed on at Little Linford at least until 1881, didn't marry. Son John with his children, two sisters and mother Charlotte moved back to Northants and was a farmer in Everdon 1871 onwards. If anyone connects with these folk, it would be good to hear from you.
