btw Karen, that Alfred 'Rambaud' in 1871 is a grandson. Looks like he probably belongs to Ann: Births Mar 1860 (>99%) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- RAINBIRD Alfred Dunmow 4a 364 Marriages Mar 1851 (97%) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rainbird Thomas Dunmow 12 107 Witney Ann Dunmow 12 107 Angela

Mary Witney widowed in 1834 High Easter children of above Eliza 1827 High Easter Sophie 1829 High Easter Joseph 1831 High Easter Ann, illegitimate daughter of Mary Witney, 1834 I believe that the 1851 census is missing so maybe the 1841 may show them. Obviously the girls will be harder to track so I think that I will have to trawl the marriage index, but maybe someone willbe able to locate Joseph on the later censuses. The was another brother Simon, he was transported to Tasmania in 1852. Any help appreciated.
