Name Elizabeth Ann STANSBURY Relationship 
with Teresa Ann GOATHAM Born Sep Q 1863 Milton Combe, Buckland Monachorum, Devon, England 
- From the 1871 census where shown as aged 9, bithplace dittoed from her mother who was shown as born Devon Buckland Milton.
GRO ref: STANSBURY, Elizabeth Ann q3 1863 Tavistock RD 5b 340; GRO online index shows mother's maiden name as BREWER
(not only Elizabeth Stan(s)bury born in Devon with closest age to that in census, though it doesn't quite fit; but the mother's maiden name is right, and the age in census was probably given by her mother who was very inconsistent with her own age).
While I'm sure this refers to the village of Milton Combe in Buckland Monachorum Parish I'm not certain if Milton was dittoed as well as Buckland and Devon.
It makes sense though, as all the children aged 5 to 19 were dittoed in the same way, I haven't been able to find the family in the 1861 census and have found that Milton Combe census returns seems to be missing for that year.

Family William Hicks BENNETT, b. Abt 1857, North Hill, Cornwall, England , d. Yes, date unknown Married Jun Q 1883 Tavistock Reg Dist, Devon or Cornwall, England - Shown as having completed 27 years marriage at the time of the 1911 census, suggesting born about 1883 or possible 1884, and what appears to be birth registration of their first son in 1884 suggests the same.
In the 1891 census her name is recorded as 'Annie' and she used this informal version when she married:
GRO ref: BENNETT, William to STANSBURY, Annie q2 1883 Tavistock RD 5b 628
The 1911 census shows they had had 10 children, of whom 6 were still living; looking for birth registrations of BENNETTs with a mother's maiden name of STANSBURY in Tavistock RD I have identified 9; 10th most likely has different spelling in the index, possibly born elsewhere.
