    • IGI mentions that Williams mother is Mary Walkington.
      I can however not find any marriage between Bartholomew Maw and her.
      On the other hand there is a marriage between Bartholomew Maw and Mary Wilson on 29 Nov 1802 in Slingsby, Yorkshire, England.
      Again, this only a few miles away from both Marton cum Moxby where William is born and also a few miles from Sherriff Hutton where he marries.
      Another clue is that one of Williams sons is called Wilson Maw ...

  • Notes 
    • Different Birth Places in different Censi:
      1841 > Yorkshire
      1851 > Mortin Sordship, Yorks
      1861 > Sherriff Shilton, Yorks = Sheriff Hutton where his wife came from and where he also married.
      1871 > Martin, Yorks
      All this leads us to believe that he is the William Maw who was christened on 06 Nov 1812 in Marton Cum Moxby, Yorkshire, England which is less then 4 miles away from Sherriff Hutton.
      IGI mentions that Williams mother is Mary Walkington.
      I can however not find any marriage between Bartholomew Maw and her.

Parish Records Before civil registration in England began in 1837, key events in a person’s life were typically recorded by the church rather than the state. Parish records are the best source of vital record information in England before the nineteenth century and remain an important source thereafter. Burial Records Historically, burials usually took place within a few days of the deceased’s death. The registers can provide •name •abode/residence •date of burial •age •who performed the ceremony In 1812, George Rose’s Act called for preprinted registers to be used for separate baptism, marriage, and burial registers as a way of standardizing records.
