There is an IGI reference to a Susey Pearson christened in 1780 in Bedale to a Christopher Pearson and Ann. The date, location and Mother's name all seem appropriate but Pearson is a fairly common name. Susannah Pearson and Robert Whitton's two children were named Anne and Margaret. Margaret was Robert's mother's name and thus it is likely that Anne was Susannah's mother's name.
