  Marriage	24 Sep 1765	Tring, Hertfordshire   [1]
  Notes	The marriage records actually say 1764, but they are written in the book during 1765 marriages so this is assumed to correct and the curate just made a mistake. It does mean though that Ann was pregnant with John when she married.

• Notes

  The only sensible possible hits for John Ghost online are a baptism on 16 Oct 1728 at Wigginton, Hertfordshire to John and Elizabeth and a burial 9 Feb 1782 at Tring. However there is no other evidence for this being the right person.
