But the 61 census doesn't have daughter Ann who is on the 51 census. 8 children?

Here's that 1871 for reference, it's possible that the youngest child belonged to one of her older daughters but was passed off as her own:

STONE, John Head M 59 1812 Somerset
STONE, Hester Wife F 58 1813 Somerset
STONE, William Son M 19 1852 Somerset
STONE, Elizabeth Daughter F 10 1861 Somerset

The 1861 certainly shows 7 children (that lived, anyway) plus there would have been Ann who was on the 1851 but would have left home by now:

STONE, John Head Married M 49 1812 Labourer Huntspill, Somerset
STONE, Hester Wife Married F 47 1814 Biddisham, Somerset
STONE, George Son M 16 1845 Labourer Bleadon, Somerset
STONE, John Son M 12 1849 Scholar Bleadon, Somerset
STONE, William Son M 9 1852 Scholar Bleadon, Somerset
STONE, Arthur Son M 6 1855 Scholar Bleadon, Somerset
STONE, Martha Daughter F 3 1858 Scholar Bleadon, Somerset
STONE, Elizabeth Daughter F 0 (6M) 1861 Bleadon, Somerset
STONE, Sarah Daughter Unmarried F 20 1841 House Servant Bleadon, Somerset

If Hester was born 1813 surely she wouldn't have an 8 year old daughter in 1871? She would have been 50 when daughter Hester was born.

There are several trees on Ancestry for this family

Hester's maiden name is shown as RIDEN but the record on one of them states that on the parish marriage entry she is shown as ROYDON - married 1833 Lympsham Somerset

This should answer your question

Hi Micheline, if you can find the birth of one of the children then their birth certificate will give you her maiden name. Look on http://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl

What exactly is confusing you about the children?

I am battling to find the maiden name of Hester Stone married to John Stone.
I have found only two possibilities a Hester Brain and a Hester Parker. Hester Stone was born in Biddisham Somerset in about 1813 and John Stone and Hester had the following children:-
Census 1851 Ann aged 13,Sarah 10, George 7, and John 3

Census 1871 William 19,Elizabeth 10,Hester 8 and grandson John 6.

I am a bit confused over the children. Did they have 7 children as the Hester Stone in both Census records was born in Biddisham and husband John born in Bleadon parish Somerset.

Would appreciate some help here.

Many thanks

Micheline
