  	The parish register entry clearly gives Mary's surname as Walton but I have some doubts over her signature. I think that the signatures of bride, groom and witnesses may not be originals - they look too neat and similar. [The unsure signature is on the original PR, the BT copy is a definite Walton] In my own mind I am satisfied that Mary is indeed Wilton. Unfortunately the Banns register has not survived so it is unlikely that we will find any other proof.
