The date isn't a quarterly one. Other trees say that Agnes first married William WINDER on 15 Nov 1852 at St Mary, Dalton in Furness Lancs. There was a son THOMAS Baxter born 1862 in Durham, who died in Melbourne on 19 Jul 1949, No. 7711 of 1949, son of William Baxter and "Agnes Bonus." Sounds like cases of "The name's the same," but I will keep looking. Mary was born in Durham. The FreeBMD has a Thomas born in Jul 1862 in Huddersfield, Yorkshire West Riding.
