1 British Vital Records CD Index, (F)ilm or (B)atch Number :, St John's BTs. Surety: 3.
Christened Marria COCKCROFT dau of John COCKCROFT and Hannah
.
Although this christening is 3 years ealier than her marriage age it is possible as she was 47 and a widow when she married Benjamin RUDMAN who was 40, and maybe wanted to conceal that she was so much older than Benjamin.
When she married Benjamin in 1854 she was 4 years older. In the 1861/71 censuses she became 2 years older!.
