Text:

This was a common law marriage. Mary was a convict assigned to Ferdinand (then an ex-convict) on his property at Prospect.

Marriage
Text:

Common law - It is supposed that Mary Pritchard formed a brief common law relationship with Samuel Terry sometime after her relationship with Ferdinand Meurant and prior to her cohabiting with John Maskey, sometime around the years 1804-08. The only evidence I can locate for this supposition is that Mary Pritchard's daughter - Corah Maskey - who was born in 1809, was described "Corah Terry' when she married Edward Beecroft/Bearcroft in 1823. Some researchers go so far as to interpret Corah's identification as "Corah Terry" at her marriage as evidence that she was Terry's rather than Maskey's daughter.
Corah also gave her father's name as Samuel Terry when she married William Mizen in 1858.
