The Brereton book and headstone records "William died in 1866 and was buried at Brown Knowl, aged 92 years".

Wife of William Brereton
of Hartfill, Who Died
Aug 4th 1851 Aged 50 Years
SACRED
also to the memory of
the above William Brereton
who died October 17th 1866
aged 92 years.

We may have the wrong Mary.  Death and Burial records show Mary was 65 when she died, so born 1769.

In the Brereton book, it is reported that Mary was born in Malpas in 1779, but this is 10 years different to her age at death (65, so born 1769).  1769 of Barthill.

The marriage record confirms Mary Tomlinson is from Broxton.

Possible Baptisms:
20-May-1767 Mary Daughter of Thomas and Pheobe Tomlinson of Coddington

20-May-1765 Mary Daughter of Ralph and Letita Tomlinson (Malpas)

06-Aug-1775 Mary Daughter of John and Martha Tomlinson of Tushingham

Also, she may have been the niece (not daughter) of Randle Tomlinson, an important farmer of Malpas who was witness to her marriage.

Died before the 1837 index started.
