  1. 1.  Maria KettMaria Kett was born about 1815; died on 10 Dec 1889 in Brackley, Northampton, England.

    Notes:

    The Maria Ketts I can find in the 1841 census are all married, and she was a spinster when she married Robert. Three are in Norfolk, which is where her daughter retired to.

    Charles Newton Weston (Robert's great grandson) wrote in his book (relevant chapter in Documents) that he visited Brackley in 1936. He saw a gravestone 'Sacred to the memory of Mary, the beloved wife of Robert Weston of this town, Solicitor, who died on 6th day of January 1876 and of Robert Weston who died on 14th December 1889 aged 64 years.'
    This could not have been the grave of his great grandmother since she died in 1844. Robert's second wife Maria died in 1889. And Robert himself died in 1872. So this gravestone is problematical - could there have been two solicitors in Brackley called Robert Weston?

    Maria married Robert Weston on 19 Dec 1849 in St Dunstan in the West, London, England. Robert (son of John Weston and Catherine Burford) was born in 1786 in Aynho, Northamptonshire, England; was christened on 25 Jul 1787 in St Michael's Church, Aynho, Northamptonshire, England; died on 20 Jan 1872 in Brackley St Peter, Northampton, England.

    Notes:

    The 1881 census entry seems likely as she starts on her career - though the Turks have classified her as a servant, which would be mortifying for a governess. The 1891 census in Gloucestershire has her as a visitor of the right age.
