Father James McNair, b. Abt 1791, Scotland d. 12 May 1860, Dewsbury, Yorkshire, England (Age 69 years) Mother Mary Wilton, b. 7 Jun 1806, Wath, Yorkshire, England d. Between Jul 1838 and Sep 1838, Ripon, Yorkshire, England (Age 32 years) Marriage 25 Nov 1825 Leeds, Yorkshire, England [5] - 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.
