Mary Ann Carter married in London to William Fisher Bulkley both were said to be living in the Parish of St. Mary, Lambeth,and both were over 21 years old on 09 Apr 1802
William Fisher Bulkley,was the son of George Bulkley and Mary Wilford.
George was a musician with Covent Garden orchestra and part owner of the Bristol theatre and his wife was an actress - popular but with a fickle nature. She played Miss Hardcastle in "She Stoops to Conquer". The above is just a background.
The above had two sons,George Wilford Bulkley who was a solicitor, firstly in Newbury and then in London, and whose descendants lived in Kingsclere their
occupations being Parish Priests and farmers.The second son was William Fisher Bulkley and he was originally a Royal Marine but in 1902 was on the Reserve and on half pay,
William Fisher Bulkley became a trader in the West Indies and I believe may have been visiting there when his second son was born in 1804,Wilford Bulkley, at Kingsclere.
William died in Guadeloupe in 1810 and the family (now five children) must have returned to England as in 1812 Mary married Johannes Ambrosius Maas in 1812 Middlesex England.
Journaal gehouden door Johannes Ambrosius Maas, 1e schrijver aan boord van 's lands fregat van oorlog het Zeepaard gecommandeerd door de 1e luitenant ter zee, Willem GijsbertGaymans, 15 juli 1800 - 19 augustus 1802 (writer on the Dutch Frigate Zeepaard) but even so when her daughter Mary Ann Bulkley (who was born in Antigua in 1809) was baptized in 1818 she was said to be living at Kingsclere. It must have been after this when most of the family and the Maas children departed for Holland. Apparently they were very poor and he wrote to the King asking for work and saying that he was married to someone whose family was of
some importance in England.
