 * 4. John Ludlow (Francis Ludlow) was baptised on 12 December 1777 at Towersey, Bucks. He married a Mary (which according to many trees is Mary Hall, but I have found no evidence for this other than a marriage register in the same names in London. This is unlikely to be the same people. The only Mary born in Towersey at the correct time was Mary Ratford). According to parish records they had the following children; Benjamin, Francis, William, Mary and Jane. The 1841 Census entry for them (Class: HO107; Piece: 39; Book: 13; Civil Parish: Towersey; County: Buckinghamshire; Enumeration District: 18; Folio: 10; Page: 15; Line: 1; GSU roll: 241210.) shows John Ludlow (age 63) living in Towersey with Mary (age 65) and Jane (age 20). This Jane must be a different Jane as the first Jane died aged 2 weeks in 1817. John was buried at Towersey on August 15 1846 and is listed as being 68 years of age.

No further information is available at the current time although a Hannah Ludlow was listed as a witness to a wedding at Towersey in 1835 when she would have been 47 years old. This may indicate that she never married, or at least not before 1835. No information has been found relating to her death.
