Samuel Bucknall ~ 1790-1841

1791. Samuel Bucknel maybe baptised to Thomas Bucknel & Eleanor on 23/9/1791 in South Ormsby, Lincolnshire- FS - this near Louth, a long way from Grimsby, but no reason why Samuel did not move up to the bustling Grimsby to improve his lot in life, And Samuel calls his second son Thomas in 1822

1814. Samuel Bucknall marries Anne Marshall on 20/4/1814 Scartho, Lincolnshire -IGI , but another IGI record says Waltham!. Also on FMP, a marriage bond, he 24, she 21. Scartho a suburb of Grimsby, to its south

Samuel & Ann maybe had the following children: Sarah b.1815 & Ann b.1817 Skidbrooke cum Saltfleet Haven ,William 1820 Saltfleetby, Thomas 1822 in Friskney, then Mary Ann 1824, Jane 1825 & Frances 1828 in South Cockerington . Baptisms mainly reg. as Bucknell - IGI. All these places within a 3m triangle, just to the south of East Halton where the family are farming by 1841

1841. Samuel Bucknall dies Glanford Brigg Mar 1841 . No burial on FMP
