To help Dorothy find the marriage details the Hants Marr Index has them married at Hannington on 23 Nov 1819. There is no baptism for a Mary Ann Drewett or Drewitt in Hants Bap Index although there were several Drewett families having children in Hannington around that time:- Charles Drewett married Martha Woodhouse 24 Dec 1828 so too late to be parents of Mary Ann also John & Mary who had at least 6 children in Hannington but not listed in Hants Marr Index and John & Jane (error for Mary maybe as no marriage in the index) with two children and a couple of baseborn children. -- John Lewis Debian (Sid) with the GeneWeb genealogy package
