Thank you for the information. Maybe she was my missing wife, maybe she wasn¡¯t, and maybe I shall never know. I guess Church records were not designed with future genealogists in mind. John was a miller, so perhaps could have gone to a port and taken his wife with him.
Kind regards
Margaret

The actual parish records for Yorkshire apart from the West Riding (and that is slowly appearing) are al on FMP.
Prior to 1813 and the start of the Rose's registers you are unlikely to find any more information -
If only she had died 6 months later then you would have know how old she was - but you would not have known that she was the wife of John!
You win and you lose

Subject: [yorksgen] Hull burial - STRAFFORD
Ancestry have a burial in Hull on 31/7/1812 of Ann STRAFFORD wife of John. If anyone has access to Hull registers or graveyards I should be very appreciative if they could see if any more information is available, particularly where John and Ann were from.
Kind regards
