Ann LEDSON
(1795-1834)
(1795-1834)
Ann Beeston married Thomas Ledson (sometimes written as Leadstone) in Leeds on 25th February 1824.
By 1832 the couple had moved to Hook, where their son, George, was baptised on 12th February 1832. Sadly, George died at the end of 1844 and was buried in Hook on 5th December 1844, at the age of 13 years. The inscription at the bottom of the gravestone is totally illegible. However, it seems likely that this is also George's burial place.
