LOFTHOUSE, Matthew & Mary (Grimwade p.584)

[MCB]

Marriage of Matthew Lofthouse and Mary Barton at St Katherine by the Tower on 9th January 1697 supports Grimwade's suggestion that Mary Lofthouse was Matthew's widow.
There is a burial record for a Matthew Lofthouse at St John Zachary, Gresham Street and also at St Anne & St Agnes both dated 11th March 1730.
Also a burial record for a Mary Lofthouse for the same churches dated 19th February 1750.

10 February 1750 Mary Lofthouse, Mrs of Saint John Zachary London will proved. Her mark resembles the description given by Grimwade, a poorly formed "M."
