    Married
    • It seems Ann was probably not married, and her blacksmith husband Samuel a fiction.
      When her daughter Maud's birth was registered, though, she gave the maiden name of Boulton. Perhaps this was the surname of Maud's father.
      Whether Ann's children had the same father or (as seems more likely) different father's I do not know.

      Venue from UKBMD websiteStrangely the 1911 census shows them as having had 4 children, all of whom were still living, but it appears clear that Samuel who died aged 1 months was theirs. The other 4 were with them in 1911.
