Notes

The marriage is registered with the groom's surname of Stratford, whilst the parish register says "Stratford or Ashby". This is because Moses was born before his parents married and his mother's maiden name was Stratford. Moses and Sarah Ann used the name Ashby when registering their children and on the censuses.
