This is the mother's second marriage.

Marriages Mar 1871 (>99%)
Higgins John Stafford 6b 35
Neild Rebecca Stafford 6b 35

I cannot see Rebecca's marriage to a Metcalf.

Thanks for that Vera I thought she might not be married but she could have taken over the kids if the wife had died her mum was a midwife also thought husband could have left his wife and took up with rebecca the men are in the same trade and i know he was b in norwich ....thanks will look into that :-) Nadia
