Biography
Sarah Johnson seems to have been baptised 19 May 1751 in Fen Drayton, the parents being Robert and Sarah. It appears that they were married 6 September 1743 in Christ's College Cambridge, 9 miles away, and that Sarah's name is Sarah Housden.
The marriage of John Willows and Sarah can be traced: 6 Apr 1773 John WILLOWES and Sarah JOHNSON (spinster) both of the parish, married in Fen Drayton. Witnesses were William COOTE and Isaac LENTON. John, Sarah and William all made a mark rather than signing their name.
Amazingly, John seems to have lived to 91, and was buried in Fen Drayton in 1836 (meaning he was born about 1745). His wife Sarah was buried 12 May 1799.
