I'm looking for Daniel Bown, b 1820ish in Chalford, Gloucestershire in 1851.

He married Maria Hunt in 1848 and Mary Ann Hunt (possibly her sister!) in 1852 (both London marriages and on LMA records). Not sure if Maria is still alive in 1851 as I can't find a death for her either :mad:

In 1841 Daniel is in Chalford with his parents, transcribed as Date Boand (!).

He is here in 1861 with third wife Mary

In subsequent census he gives his pob as Stroud. The surname is Bown is often mistrancribed as Bowen (and other variations) which doesn't help.

Can anyone find him?

I can't spot him or either bride. I've had a good hard look at Cripplegate too (where they say they're living on marriage) and still nothing

Me neither.

Other than working out that Maria was ten years older than Mary Ann and Maria was probably born in Gloucester(shire) about 1822 I've not found anything.
