Hannah FORWARD was born in 1783 at Mere, Wiltshire, England; there were two people named Hannah FORWARD baptised in this time period. In the absence of precise ages, I have allocated the one born in 1780 as the one who married in1803, on the grounds that she was younger. The one born in 1783 is allocated as the one who married in 1804. This is very flimsy and may need review.
Hannah FORWARD was baptised on 26 October 1783 at St Michael's, Mere, Wiltshire, England.1
Marriage*
16 September 1804
She married Charles GOVER, son of John GOVER and Susannah LAPHAM, on 16 September 1804 at St Michael's, Mere, Wiltshire, England. Groom of Stourton but a sojourner in Mere, bride of Mere. By Banns. Wit: William FRY, James CLEMENTS Jnr.2

Marriage*
James FORWARD married Jane (FORWARD). James FORWARD alias WAKE married Jane HINKS in Bruton on 24 May 1790, but this would have been after Frederick's legitimate baptism on 4 Jan 1790 in Mere. James & Jane FORWARD had a daughter Elizabeth baptised in Bruton in 1791, but no others. It's possible it's the same couple, but if so, there is some irregularity of a mis-transcription of dates.

Jane FORWARD was born in 1716 at Mere, Wiltshire, England; There were also girls baptised in Mere (but not elsewhere) named Jane FORWARD, in 1711 and 1713. However, the 1717 Jane matches her age at death exactly. There is a small chance that FOREHEAD is not the same as FORWARD, but if so, it is an extraordinarily rare surname, and seems to appear in Sedgehill.
