1757. A Martha Bishop was baptised Worth to Henry Bishop & Eliz. 12/9/1757 . This would make her ~ 9 years older than her husband Nathaniel, & it also could not be she giving birth up to 1810 or even 1820!!. So no suitable baptism for a Martha Bishop found
1790. Martha Bishop married Nathaniel Gunn 1766 on 1/7/1790, St Nic Brighton - from DGunn ancestry tree & confirmed on Ancestry England & Wales marriages 1538- 1940.
Nathaniel & Martha had Stephen Henry 1793, Reuben1795, Martha 1803, Nathaniel 1803, Thomas 1806 & 1813 John 1808, Elizabeth 1810, George 1820 & Elizabeth 1822 - this latter would mean she were only ~15 when she married!
