"May 4th Valentine Jory & Mary Cross Bann"
(marital status not shown for bride or groom for any of the 24 marriages on the page, although with this number it seems some must have been widows or widowers, so it is not safe to assume that from the absence of this information Valentine was a bachelor and Mary a spinster)
I am showing Mary as the wife of the Valentine who married in 1716 but I'm not sure. She was probably either his wife or the first wife of his son Valentine. That would have meant his son married aged about 19 - would have been unusually young for the time. Also the date of burial of Valentine senior's 1st wife Susanna's suggests Mary is likely to have been the wife of this Valentine. Mary's burial would also help - if she died after the younger Valentine married Elizabeth she can't have been his wife.
