HI Sally Thanks for that information. I have written down that Jones family you gave me from the 1851. Hopefully all the pieces of the jigsaw will fit into place soon and i will know who is who. Yes i found the marriage between Edward Jones and Jane Scott which i think is quite promising. The only question is why did they wait so long to start a family? The first child was born 1865. I am going to send for one of Edwards Children's birth cert as someone suggested and then i will know what her maiden name was. I have a sneaky suspicion that her first name may not be Jane. I don't know why but i have just got that feeling. Thanks very much for your help and all the best. Jane

Hi Sally Thanks for the offer. Could you please look up the following: Edward Leggassick or Legassick Born c1829 Brent-Devon Living with his wife Eliza in 1871 but was probably not married in 1851. I cannot find anything about him or his parents. He is not on the 1881 census or 1901 census. Much appreciated and Merry Christmas Alyson

Hi Sally, Would you please look up William Burton born about 1806 at Coventry, he is married to a Martha. They had children William, Charles and Joseph that I know of but they may have left home by 1851. Thanks. Trixie

Trixie, I am sorry but, think they must have left Coventry by 1851 lots of Burtons there but, not yours. Sally.

Hi Sally, Thanks for looking, all my Burtons are from Coventry but I have now found that two of the older children of this family were born in Manchester and then they returned to Coventry for the rest. Thanks again. Trixie
