One Slight problem is that on the 1861 census Ann's father was John not edward. I will just check familysearch and see if I can find an Ann with father John.

Gosh

You all have been really kind and done a lot of research for me. I really do appriciate all your hard work. Thank you.

I will have to copy it all down and try and make sense of it all.

Can I ask a Question Mel Fairy Godmother. Do you think Truman is freeman.? spelling mistake. I did see the name Truman on family search and didnt take any notice of it. I will have to go back and have another look.

Thank you All so much for all your help. What would I have done without you all.

Ann and Nancy were often interchangeable back then - If you put the name "Nancy" in the LDS search engine it will also bring up "Ann's"

Thanks everyone for your help. The information you have provided me with has answered quite a few of my questions.

I didnt realise Charles' wifes name was Ann not Nancy

Also John Vause causes a problem as it states he is Father in Law. So I guess Anns surname was Vause. I will have to look into this. Thanks again for all your help
