Find Ancestors

Thank you all for your help everyone it looks like most of you have come to the same conclusion that Mary Lanes was unwed and her mother also was unwed when she had Mary.
I hadn't come across Hannah Wilmott so will pursue that link.
I am unsure if Charles Marshall shoe maker is Georges father as on his wedding certificate for Mary Hardy's wedding that I bought it says on the accompanying note that his father was Charles Marshall Lanes but I can't find any evidence of him being a Lanes so I will go along the line that Charles the shoemake is the father .

Thank you everyone

I'll let Liz know how to find her replies... :-)

I wonder if this is Dad, a shoemaker in 1841

The elderly Hannah in census 1851 was born Sturton, Notts:

Name: Hannah Lane
Age: 69
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1782
Relation: Head
Gender: Female
Where born: Shurton, Nottinghamshire, England
Civil Parish: Normanton on Trent

She may have had a [nother] child there out of wedlock:

Hannah in 1841

In 1851 Hannah says she is a widow.
I wonder if her mother is Hannah Wilmott (if 'widow' is telling the truth, of course).

Family search just has a mother at his baptism, so I would have assumed he was born out of wedlock, but that his father's surname might well have been Marshall.

Name:George Marshall Lane
Gender:Male
Christening Date: 10 Jun 1843
Christening Place:Normanton-upon-Trent, Nottingham, England
Mother's Name: Mary Lane
Indexing Project (Batch) Number: C16809-4 , System Origin: England-ODM , GS Film number: 0504065 IT 6

This might just be coincidence, but in the 1851 census Beverly posted, George is living with an elderly Hannah Lane, who says she is a widow.

A single Hannah Lane appears to have given birth to a child called Mary Lane in 1823, ie same name as George's mother, no father mentioned on the baptism record:
