ARC.........SALT/BASHFORD/FARMER in Lye, Wollescote

[Getagrip]

My 3rd great-grandmother was Susannah Salt born abt 1831 in Lye, Wollescote, father Thomas Bashford born 1797. mother Esther Farmer born 1798. I'm confused as she seems to have married a William Bashford (born 1826) in 1851 but is also listed as married to a William Priest born 1825. A census record shows her as Susannah Salt with "Susannah Bashford" in brackets, presumably as a result of a correction from someone who is better at genealogy than I am! I have a Baptism Certificate for her, her name is abbreviated to Susa* and she seems to have been a Bashford by birth. I don't know where the surname "Salt" comes from. Any help in unravelling this will be greatly appreciated.

Confused

so are we saying that the Susannah b 1831 with parents Thomas and Esther Bashford is not the one that marries William Bashford
as that one is a Susannah Salt with father Joseph Salt

and is that bapt on IGI correct as trans says 1831

so does our Susannah marry here?

[Northern Lass]

The one that marries John Bashford the Susannah Perry we have here she dies
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =579397321

and John goes onto marry another woman

so we can rule that one out
