Anyway how did you piece together that Mary Ann's parents were Thomas Kemp and Mary Polkinghorne? From what I have found the only Kemp to marry a Polkinghorne was JohnHenry Kemp born 6 Apr 1817 in Cronan, England. John and Mary married 2 May 1839 in Sithney England. Thomas Cooke Kemp II born 1811 Of, East Meon, Hampshire, England married Mary Canham (born Abt 1815 Of Flordan, , Cambridge, England) married 17 Jun 1841 in St Bridles,Flatt St, , London, England. Now John and Mary did have a daughter named Ann ut she was born Abt 1841. And Mary Polkinghorne was married Before John Henry Kemp. That marriage took place 1 May 1825 in Wendron. I haven't found anything yet to support this prior marriage but you never know.
