What was he doing in Peckham?
Im not sure about Sally her name was Sarah.

Sally and Sarah are interchangeable.
The Stinson's were born in Lincs (Thomas in Much Deeping) except for John who was born Peckham. Must be relatives.
EDIT Both John and Robert are bricklayers interestingly. Wonder if he moved down there to learn the trade?

I bet John was his mothers younger brother

Shirley, just a bit of friendly advice! Variations like Sarah/Sally and Stinson/Stimson are neither here nor there in this game. If you stand back a bit you can see they are the same family.

No way of knowing if John is a brother or maybe a cousin, but I bet this is his marriage:

Marriages Dec 1849 (>99%)
Kirby Jane Ann Bourn 14 518
Shillaker George Bourne 14 518
Stimson Jane Bourne 14 518
Stimson John Bourne 14 518

From IGI:

John Stimson

Father: John Stimson Family

Marriages:

Spouse: Jane Ann Kirby Family
Marriage:
05 DEC 1849 Market Deeping, Lincoln, England

This is the Jane who married on that Freebmd entry:

1851 England Census

Name: Jane Shillaker
Age: 30
Estimated birth year: abt 1821
Relation: Wife
Spouse's name: George
Gender: Female
Where born: Deeping, Lincolnshire, England

Civil parish: Langtoft
County/Island: Lincolnshire

Registration district: Bourn
Sub-registration district: Corby

George Shillaker 25
Jane Shillaker 30
Elizabeth Shillaker 6 Mo
William Burrows 18

They might not be siblings but worth bearing in mind.

Just to return to the beginning, we aren't any further on are we! Got a bit side-tracked.
Are you local to the area Shirley? A look at the parish record might just hold a clue.

See you then! If all else fails, check if there is a Mormon family history centre near you, as they can order the parish records for you to have a look at (there is a fee, but I believe it is quite modest).

Sorry but thinking about this in the bath did John marry again to Ann? Or am I confused

Well, there is no way of knowing the relationship between Sarah, John, Jane and Cornelius. They are of the same generation roughly, could be siblings or cousins perhaps. It's unfortunate their father is John in both cases!
Need a good night's sleep with this one I think!
