William Newton married Mary Bone on the 27 Jan 1758, Sancreed. My problem is who were Mary's parents?
The couple had three children William 1761, John 1764 and Mary 1758.
Since there were no more births after John I presume the death of Mary Newton in 1767 Zennor is her, and William went on to remarry in 1769 to a Sarah Hall.
I could be wrong, just my findings. would love a little help on this

I last looked at this family about two years ago and at that time I had not determined parents for Mary. William Newton was baptised in 1730 so would have been about age 27 at marriage so Mary Bone could have been several years younger ............ or even a little older. The marriage took place at Sancreed so as we know William Newton was born at Zennor I would expect Mary may have been a Sancreed girl at the time. Of the possible Mary Bone baptisms all are at St Just with the following being the most likely:-
9th October 1724 St Just - Mary daughter of Martyn and Mary Bone 9th November 1728 St Just - Mary daughter of Bernard and Mary Bone 22nd September 1739 St Just - Mary daughter of Melchizedeck Bone
All of the above appear to have been still living or, possible, married at the time of the Newton marriage so it will need to be a process of elimination to determine which may have married William Newton.
As for children from that first marriage - there were actually four. Elizabeth daughter of William Bone was baptised privately at Morvah 20th March 1767 and Mary was buried at MORVAH (not Zennor) 19th May 1767.
Following the death of Mary at Morvah William then married Sarah Hall of Morvah at Madron 6th April 1769.

That was very quick, thank you so much. I did have her parents as Bernard Bone and Mary Read, total guess work, as you pointed out there are three Mary Bones born very close together.
And no I didn't have Elizabeth, so onto the family tree she goes. Most likely Mary had complications due to child birth, hence she died two months after.
