2. Samuel TENNANT was born about 1747 in England-Hertford-Cheshunt.
He was christened on 11 Oct 1747 in England-Saint Mary, Luton, Bedford,.

(1851 census Cheshunt is not in Hertfordshire but seems to fall under Edmonton for census purposes and will therefore found under presumably Middlesex )

3. Mary HUDSON (HARRISON HUTSON)3-6,8,9 was born about 1752.

Her last name is in IGI in 2 different records given different names
Harrison also Hutson¨
I think it may be Hudson as this is from an extracted church record but could of course be a typo error but daughter has middle name Harrison which would indicate it is Harrison
The name Harrison is from a church member no direct marriage record and I wonder if it isn't guessed because oldest daughter is called Sarah Harrison who I believe was called after her paternal grandmother.

(If we following a naming system Samuels parents should Be Sarah Harrison and William and Mary's parents should be Joseph and Mary)

Samuel TENNANT and Mary HUDSON (HARRISON HUTSON) had the following children:

i. Sarah Harrison TENNANT was born in 1773. She was christened on 25 Jul 1773 in Cheshunt, Hertford, England.
