      It seems likely the death was this James. Not yet found in the 1871 or 1881 censuses, not with his wife and family in those, but his wife is described as 'mar' rather than 'wid'. She is shown as 'wid' in 1891.

    Notes 
    • I am guessing that James was a son of William - birthplace and occ fit, also in gap between Wms children; also now found that one of James' sons had the middle name Edwards - James' mother's maiden name if I have the right parents.

      nb/ living at Thorn in 1861 - in Stoke Fleming civil parish but Blackawton Ecclesiastical parish!
      With his wife, 4 children, a house servant and a carter.
