Sorry I've been watching what time I'm on the net as I had a BIG bill.

Yes Kath

those 2 Fosters are mine, Fost has been used as a christian name since
John Hornby Married Jane Foster in 1784c so when I see a foster Hornby as 1st or 2nd Christian name I like to look into it to see if it is one of my ancestors, but as you have been kind enough to find the marriage , it would appear that another Hornby has married a Foster and using Foster as a Christian name.

Now to check another one Familysearch has a Elizabeth Hornby b 1829 marrying a George Preston b 1825, in 1848 Saint Laurence York
Elizabeth's father is down as William Foster Hornby?? not been able to check this one yet

Thank you for your help

Yes thats what I've got , but I can't find a birth for Elizabeth Father William Foster or a birth for a William Foster Hornby, I've wondered if they add their 2nd name after !!

I've put his birth about 1800, which matches with the marriage of John Hornby to Jane Foster as far as I've been able to find out they had Thomas 1787. John 1791 & Foster 1794 all in Horton in Ribblesdale. I suppose they could have had more children
