Marriage? Ann Blake and Biddy Sergeant appear to both have been spouses to Robert Hayward (although no solid evidence, only family stories and theories, could be found to support this). Biddy was apparently an aboriginal woman, with whom Robert Hayward had a long-term relationship that produced some (?) children. The only registered birth from this union is Sarah Hayward (born 1834). He also produced several children with Ann Blake.
