BLACK; NTT,ENG; 1750-1850 John and Mary BLACK appear in Haughton, Nottinghamshire, around 1810; Daughter Mary BLACK baptised Walesby 7 Oct 1810, Son Thomas BLACK baptised Walesby 28 Mar 1813. John, I think, may have been born to William BLACK & Mary COOK in Ordsall, and baptised there on 28 Sep 1782. But, who was Mary? When and where did they marry? Did they have any other children before or after the appear in the Walesby parish records? I can't find them in the Notts FHS marriage indexes, the IGI, or the LDS Vital Records CD. I haven't find any more children of John & Mary BLACK in the right time frame. Daughter Mary married John MORRITT in Blythe in 1833, and her father was living with her in Barnby Moor according to the 1841 & 1851 censuses. Thomas (my g-g-grandfather) turned up in Sheffield in 1839 and he's relatively plain sailing from there - I have his marriage to Sarah BRADSHAW, the births of their children, Sarah's early death, and records of Thomas through the 1851-81 censuses. But where did the original John and Mary BLACK marry? Patrick, Cumbria, England Researching BLACK (COB, COOK, ROBUCK); N. Notts BLACK, BRADSHAW; S.
