I am doing some family history research for a friend and am wondering if there is anyone on this list who can help me. I have a Mary Ann Collishaw who married Thomas Edenbrow on 11^th Feb 1883 at the Hannah Memorial Church at Lincoln. I have her birth date as 15^th June 1863 and on the 1891, 1901 and 1911 censuses she says that she was born in Kirkby Green, Lincolnshire. However the only possible Mary Ann Collishaw I can find on previous censuses in Lincolnshire is the daughter of John and Ann and it is stated that she was born in Waddington, Lincolnshire. Does anyone know where I could find either the details of the marriage in Lincoln or the baptism in either Kirkby Green or Waddington as this seems to be the only way I can find out if this is the same Mary Ann Collishaw. I do hope that someone is able to help as I have been struggling with this for a while now Best Wishes Margaret Hartshorn

In 1871 Mary Ann, age 7, is in Kirkby Green with her parents John and Ann, and older siblings. See RG10 / 3348 folio 33. Hannah Memorial is, according to Google, a Methodist church. I see that Lincolnshire Archives do list records for this church, but they do not seem to be on-line Sorry, no linkage to his family in my research ... just did a bit of digging out of curiosity. > [...] Margaret Hartshorn Denny Lowe, Perth Ontario.
