| NOTES: | |
| 1: | At the time of their marriage Mary Ann lived at Hyslop Street in Toxteth, Liverpool. |
| 2: | Robert, perhaps because he was a mariner, gave his address simply as 'Parish of Liverpool'. |
| 3: | It is possible that Robert and Mary Ann had as many as 16 children, with only 5 living to adulthood. |
| 4: | Some of the above information was provided by my distant cousin Derek Sadler. |
