Facts and events

Marriage
Note: Not 100% convinced on this ... the only other option is a marriage in 1852, which be a better fit with the age of daughter Mary (1854). However, John would only have been 15 then, which makes it unlikely.

It's more likely that Elizabeth came with a daughter when they married. Also, there is no record of a Mary A Close registered in the Auckland area of Durham (Tow Law) in between 1853 and 1855, which again would make sense.

... but there again, there are no Mary A Chismans either....
