Shows that on 19 Oct 1769 PRIORY married Amy REYNOLDS. Both were 'of this parish', both made their mark, and they were bachelor and spinster. They married by Banns and the witnesses were John Slany and George Tolhurst.

Family William WHITEHEAD, b. Abt 1776, Stockbury, Kent, England , d. Dec 1842, Bredgar, Kent, England (Age ~ 66 years) Married 11 Oct 1799 St. Mary and St. Sexburga’s Church, Minster, Sheppey, Kent, England - This William Whitehead and Ann? - I think the evidence is quite convincing, although both William and Ann were shown as of Minster in Sheppey, and while I they could have been working there I have nothing to confirm this. Just under a year later their first child was baptised back in Stockbury where William was from.
Ann's age at death is consistent with the age suggested by Ann Prior's baptism.
But most convincing is that a number of members of the Prior and especially the Whitehead family married in Minster. In addition, 2 of Williams siblings married 2 of Ann's.
Neither of these couples married at the same time, but a couple who would appear to be Ann Prior's brother John and his bride married on the same day in Minster. They too were shown as of Minster, but their first child, also baptised the following September, was baptised in Bredgar (where the Priors were baptised).
