Problem: On 21 Oct 1738 Freegrace Norton & Margaret Towsley publish intention to be married. On 23 Nov 1738 Margaret Trumble & Freegrace Norton are married. Are they the same person? Is it Towsley or Trumble? Margaret Towsley birth is a closer match to Freegrace Norton so I have assigned the children to Freegrace & Margaret Towsley.
