I have a note saying that there are two possible births for her on BMD Registers - one 1733 with parents Thomas and Mary, and one 1734 with father John. I haven't viewed the images yet, but I have viewed the marriage image and it doesn't give any info to help. William and Mary's first two sons were named John and Thomas, but William's father's name was John, and they don't seem to have named a child after William's mother, so I can't figure out who Mary;s parents were likely to be from her children's names.

There is a likely burial on BMD Registers (listed 4 times!) in 1793 at Holme, Cumberland. But FamilySearch gives the father's name as Joseph Glaister for the burial 16 Aug 1793 - or perhaps there are two Mary Glaisters buried that year because there are quite a lot of entries on BMD Registers and only 2 of them are shown as father Joseph Glaister. FamilySearch shows a burial 6 Aug 1793 which could be her.

Have you seen this? Don't know how accurate the research is, but it does seem to have a lot of info.

That's interesting, thanks, Shona. I think I have seen it before but was still trying to find something to prove for sure how my William and Mary fit into the families. But looking at it again made me realise I have the wrong year for William and Mary's marriage! Looking back at the image, it is 1756, not 1758.
