Other information; Parents not named on her baptism record. Two years later Betty ORCHARD d/o William & Catherine of Bourton was baptised in Penselwood. Almost certainly her sister. The question is, is this the same couple as John & Catherine ORCHARD, who had a child baptised in Stourton in 1721?

Marriage Bann*
15 June 1750
Marriage banns for Ann OWEN and Briant HARTGILL were published on 15 June 1750 at Stourton, Wiltshire, England; Also 22 & 29. Groom a bch of Kilmington. Bride otp. There is no evidence that this marriage occurred. It certainly didn't happen in Stourton or Kilmington. FHOL and IGI are silent. Also BVRI.
Marriage*
11 July 1761
Ann OWEN married William EDWARDS, son of Edward EDWARDS and Basil WHITE, on 11 July 1761 at Stourton, Wiltshire, England. Bride of Kilmington. However, there was never an OWEN family in Kilmington, so I am confident that the one baptised in Stourton is the correct one. There are no other alternatives on SW Wilts Baps.

Marriage banns for Ann OWEN and William EDWARDS were published on 14 June 1761 at Stourton, Wiltshire, England; Also 21 & 28. Groom a wid otp. Bride of Kilmington.2

Burial*
16 May 1780
She was buried on 16 May 1780 at Stourton, Wiltshire, England; Aged 50 yrs.
Residence*
She lived at Stourton and Kilmington.
Note*
Other information; Marriage banns were called for Briant HARTGILL and Ann OWEN (or OPEN) in 1750 but there is no available record of the marriage. In fact, there is no record of Briant HARTGILL again. It is circumstantial evidence that suggests that Briant and Ann were the parents of John HARTGILL alias OWEN. At this time (prior to 1754) all that was required for a legal marriage was the consent of both parties and evidence of consummation, and of course a baby was evidence. So if John HARTGILL alias OWEN was born of these parents, he would have been considered by some as legitimate, but by others as illegitimate, since church marriage was certainly the norm and the preferred method of marraige.
Married Name
Her married name was EDWARDS.
Name Variation
She was also known as OPEN. Surname appears this way on marriage banns.
