Mary Ann Hart married Edward Carter at Marston Trussell, Northants on 27th November 1849; her father's name was given as William. This is the Hart family in Lubenham, Leicestershire in 1841 (mistranscribed as "Hurt" on Ancestry):
William Hart, 40
Mary Hart, 30
Mary Hart, 13
William Hart, 11
Eliza Hart, 9
Charles Hart, 8
Henry Hart, 7
George Hart, 4
Louisa Hart, 5
Philip Hart, 1
By 1851 Mary Ann was married, the rest of the family living in Marston Trussell:
William Hart, 48
Mary Hart, 46
Eliza Hart, 19
Charles Hart, 17
Louisa Hart, 15
George Hart, 13
Philip Hart, 10
Albert Hart, 8
Frederick Hart, 6
Thomas Hart, 4
Robert Hart, 2
Emily Hart, 2 months
Isaac Carter, 24 (visitor)
... although just to confuse matter there are some other Harts in All Saints, Leicester:
William Hart, 55
Mary Hart, 50
Frederick Hart, 27
Eliza Hart, 16
Sarah Ann Hart, 13
William Hart, 10
1861, still in Marston Trussell:
William Hart, 58
Mary Hart, 52
Frederick Hart, 16
Thomas Hart, 14
Robert Hart, 12
Priscilla Hart, 10
and the other William and Mary, with Eliza and William junior, were still in All Saints Leicester.
Mary Ann was born before the introduction of civil registration, but several of her siblings came after it, and the GRO gives the following, all in Market Harborough district:
George Hart, 1837 - MMN not given
Philip Hart, 1840 - MMN Oliver
Albert Hart, 1842 - MMN Oliver
Frederick Hart, 1844 - MMN Oliver
Thomas Hart, 1846 - MMN Oliver
Robert Hart, 1849 - MMN Oliver
Priscilla Hart, 1851 - MMN Oliver
There is a marriage of William Hart to Mary Oliver on 18th October 1826 at St Margaret's, Leicester, so I had assumed that all the Lubenham/Marston Trussell Harts were the children of that couple. I hadn't managed to find a baptism record for Mary Ann, until I came across this in the Non-Conformist register for Bond Street, Leicester:
"Mary Ann, daughter of William Hart & Mary his wife (daughter of Robert & Eleanor Flowers) of the Friars, Leicester, was born September 8th 1831 & baptised October 28th 1832, by Edw. Webb"
If Mary Ann was married in Marston Trussell in 1849, it seems certain that she was the daughter of the family who were living there in 1851 - MMN Oliver. The presence of the other William and Mary in Leicester would account for the Mary Ann on the baptism record having a different MMN, but it seems a bit of a coincidence that they just happened to call their daughter Mary Ann too; I haven't found the "other" Harts in 1841, to verify that there was a second Mary Ann. I would guess that it is just a coincidence, and that the Mary Ann who was baptised in Leicester is not the same one who married in Marston Trussell, but it's a bit confusing!
