Biography

Mary was born in Somerset in 1762, the daughter of John Clowter and Rachel Brownsford. She was baptised at North Curry, Somerset on 6 October 1762[1].

Mary married Samuel Crossman at Cossington, Somerset on 14 January 1778. [2] They had six children: Jenny (b 1779), Ann (b1781), George (b1784), Mary (b 1787), George (b 1792), and Samuel Crossman. [3]

Mary passed away some time after 1797.

Uncertain Relationship

BFrye on FamilySearch records[4] this Mary as marrying Thomas Parson in North Curry in 1796, [5] with a son, John, born that year.

  • This overlaps Mary's marriage with Samuel Crossman
  • The Crossman - Clowter marriage in 1778[2] is the only marriage, recorded on FreeReg, between 1775 and 1795 in Somerset of a Samuel Crossman
  • The baptism of Mary to John Clowter and Rachel Brownsford on 6 Oct 1762 in North Curry [1] is the only baptism recorded on FreeReg for a Mary Clowter between 1740 and 1765 (14 year before the birth of Jenny)
  • FreeReg has 3 baptisms for Mary Clouter in Somerset between 1740 and 1780 that should be considered for either marriage
    • Mary Clouter on 5 Nov 1742 in North Curry to William and Ruith Clouter (Age 36 at Marriage to Sam, 37 at Jenny's birth, 52 at Sam's birth, 54 at Marriage to Thomas and birth of John)
    • Mary Clouter on 3 Nov 1752 in Bicknoller to John and Mary Clouter (Age 26 at Marriage to Sam, 27 at Jenny's birth, 42 at Sam's birth, 44 at Marriage to Thomas and birth of John)
    • Mary Clouter on 15 Jun 1755 in Monksilver to Samuel and Elizabeth Clouter (Age 23 at Marriage to Sam, 24 at Jenny's birth, 39 at Sam's birth, 41 at Marriage to Thomas and birth of John)
