Mary Babbidge
1816-c.1887
Mary Babbidge was born in the village of Holcombe Rogus in Devon to John Babbage, a labourer, and his wife whose name is currently unknown.
She married Samuel Burnell of Coombe Florey in neighbouring Somerset. The couple settled in Somerset after their marriage and had at least nine children.
Her marriage certificate shows that both her and her husband were illiterate labourers in 1839 as they both signed the marriage register with an 'X'. The 1861 Coombe Florey Census notes that the family are living in "poor houses, Coombe Florey" with Samuel noted as a "road contractor".
