Are you sure you have the right marriage for your John & Elizabeth Lill? Wrawby is not exactly close to Willoughby with Sloothby, and an 1837 baptism in Wrawby at FamilySearch suggests the John Lill marriage there may relate to a younger couple. It needs more investigation, but the surname Hempstock may be a red-herring.

I found this marriage on both Familt Search and findmay past. The problem is I got Hogsthorpe as her place of birth from the 1851 and 1861 census, didn’t find her anywhere else. I think she may have been a widow when she married John Lill, she was 49 and he was 44, so chances are they were both widowed. Family Search seems to agree with this, there are a heap of children born to John and Elizabeth Lill, staring from the early 1800’s so that’s perhaps 2 other marriages to find. I am trying to find a marriage that could be her first one. There is a Hempstock family in Louth - the daughter Faithfull Hempstock married a George Edwards there in 1815. and there’s an Eve Hempstock married Louth 1826; there’s a Benjamin Hempstock marrying Elizabeth Jones in 1827 and a Thomas Hemstock marrying and Elizabeth Page in Crowle in 1821. I ! am wondering if Benjamin is her first husband?
