Family John INMAN, [Parents?], b. Abt 1753, Knaresborough, Yorkshire, England , d. Between 1834 and 1836 (Age ~ 81 years)
Other Partners: Mary SERVANT m. 20 Oct 1808Married 15 Mar 1780 St. John the Baptist Church, Knaresborough, Yorkshire, England - At the time of his marriage to Mary SERVANT John was shown as a widower. It is likely he had not been a widower for long, a few months to a few years would be typical. The only burial I have found in Knaresborough burial register likely to be his wife was the same year, a few months before he remarried: the burial of a Mary Inman.
The burial register does not record Mary's age at her death, but she is named as the wife of John, and this marriage appears the only likely one. John must have died after 1817 (as his youngest son was born in 1818), and the only likely burials are for Johns in 1834 and 1836. Both suggest a birth about 1853, a year in which two John Inmans were baptised in Knaresborough, and which fits well with a 1780 marriage.
Details of marriage from PR entry (image on Ancestry and FMP)
Both made their marks, witnesses were John Saner and Richard Johnson (Richard Johnson was a witness to many marriages around this time - usually a sign of a person being Parish Clerk, but a Robert Latham was also witness to many - perhaps they were sharing the job)
Another John Inman and a Mary had married in 1769, so could still have been having children after 1780, but as their are no baptisms and / or burials of children of a John and Mary in the period 1769-1780 it seems reasonable to suppose those after 1780 were the children of this John and Mary. (There was not another marriage of a John Inman to a Mary in Knaresborough until this John remarried in 1808). Of course there is the possibility of a John and Mary moving into the parish from elsewhere, or a John from Knaresborough marrying elsewhere and bringing his bride back to Knaresborough, but I have not spotted a likely couple, and the children seem consistent with being those of one couple.
