George Tharp, bachelor of Throwley married Sarah Downe, widow of Throwley 24 Dec 1778. Witnesses. Susanna Elvy, Sarah Smith, William Hoy, George Kingston and Joseph Le Cras. The bride in this marriage was not previously married at Throwley and there appeared to be no children christened at Throwley of a Downe couple with a wife named Sarah or Mary.
