Marriage of William Empson and Hannah Turner in the IGI on 25 December 1786 in Warsop, Nottinghamshire. The same information is in Ancestry England, Select Marriages, 1538–1973 and Ancestry England & Wales Marriages, 1538-1988.
The first five children were christened in Warsop, and born in Church Warsop just north of Warsop (John in C Town and Hannah in WM Woods (there is a William Wood Farm and William Wood Bridge near Warsop Vale on B6031). Betty and Samuel were christened in Teversal so I assumed the family moved in about 1797. Warsop is on the A60 22 miles north of Nottingham (not to be confused with Worksop!). Teversal is some 20 miles north of Nottingham, 4 miles west of Mansfield on B6014.
There are nine entries in Ancestry Public Member Trees including giving his father as John Empson c1718-1793 but with no references. Warsop baptisms do not start before 1743.
William Empson was Felicity's fourth great grandfather.
