another spreader-outer of records :-)

Mike suggests, if I may make it more readable without using up my entire monitor for one record, that

Name: Hannah Seymour
Estimated birth year:abt 1796
Registration Year:1869
Registration Quarter:Jan-Feb-Mar
Age at Death:73
Registration district:Wycombe
Inferred County:Buckinghamshire
Volume:3a
Page:320

may be the Hannah whose baptism I posted

I don't think there's really any reason to think that ... that would mean she died unmarried in her 70s which was rather unusual.

There are also Hannah Seymour deaths in Wycombe district in 1854 and 1863 before ages were shown ... not a unique name.

I can't find a Hannah Seymour to fit that death record in 1861, to check

Relation:Wife

Spouse's Name:William Cobb

Where born:

William Cobb 44 = labouring carpenter

there is this baptism

https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:J3XR-FXZ

Name: Hannah Seymour
Gender: Female
Christening Date: 01 Jul 1798
Christening Place: WATLINGTON,OXFORD,ENGLAND
Father's Name: Benjamin Seymour
Mother's Name: Hannah
Indexing Project (Batch) Number: C03913-1

Greenfield and Watlington are about 2 miles apart, and Watlington might well be where baptisms were performed

how to prove any possibility you find will be the problem, but that baptism seems quite likely
