Yes I see-Louisa/Louise probably was louise Crow!! She is a widow when she marrries James Gleeson. Then she died soon after-If she only married first time in 1873 then he died 1876-not much time for children-then married again in 1883 to Gleeson! Thats quite possible!

If John was born in Ireland then thats James Brother! He was born about 1847 and died in 1897 in Exeter. I think the other Eliza might belong to one of myothers-will have to check-Most of them died though!

1881 is him-I don't think 1891 is-I have his marriage to Louisa in Exeter-and then he died in Exeter in 1897. And he was born Exeter-not plymouth. Can anyone see him anywhre in Exeter in 1891? (Not Louisa-I was forgetting she'd just died!!!) but still wondering if there were any children.)
