HEMBURY and its variants was fairly common around Burnham, Mark and Wedmore so it would be wise to take a closer look at those and surrounding parishes .  FreeREG does not yet have a complete range of Somerset Parishes and of course she may not have been christened as a child but when she was older (one of my own ancestors was christened the day before he got married aged 25).  There is also the possibility of non-conformity and as all marriages had to take place in Church of England churches between 1752 and 1837 - unless you were a Jew or a Quaker - that doesn't necessarily mean that she attended a church.

Where did Mary PIPE die? - your heading suggests 1841 but the Mary PIPE whose death was registered in Somerset in 1841 was only 40 when she died in Bath.

I've just found a Mary PIPE alive on the 1841 census in Lympsham, aged 80 - which does suggest a much earlier date of birth, given that ages were approximated downwards to the nearest 5 years.  Our transcriptions show a Mary HEMBURY christened in 1755 at Huntspill d/o Philip & Mary which you might like to consider.

Thank you Dave. I eliminated Mary HEMBRY from Burnham-on-Sea as a Mary HEMBRY (same spelling) married John DOD in Burnham-on-Sea 19 September 1792.

Did you conduct your FreeReg search with the "Soundex" box ticked? I ask because there was a Baptism of a Mary HEMBRY at Burnham-on-Sea on 11 July 1774. The parents were Ricahard and Ann. It might be worth following up.

My link is with my 4 x great grandmother Harriet who married William PRATLETT in Worle in 1809 - transcribed as PREAN on both FreeReg and the WsMFHS transcripts.  

I am now pretty certain that Harriet was the 'baseborn' daughter of Rebecca BREAN baptised in Wrington 25 Jan 1788 - a note states 'Aged 6 years 21 May next'.  
Rebecca BREAN (1760-1833) was the daughter of William and Mary (possibly nee SINGER).  

William and Mary (probably died 1797) also had a son Paul baptised in 1757 so I am now trying to work out how our trees connect as I have no dates for William yet apart from the possible marriage to Mary SINGER in 1749.
