The marriage certificate of Thomas Trevithick of Hill End to Mary Anne Green.

 An email from a fellow researcher prompted me to post the marriage certificate of Thomas Trevithick and Mary Anne Green As can be seen, Mary Anne is nearly 40 years younger than Thomas. While they did not have children together, Mary Anne brought a child Winifred Green to the marriage.
