- private bapt
Gender Male Died 6 Nov 1839 Old Buckenham, Norfolk, England
Cause: Hydrocephalus - Not in 1841 census, a burial entry and death registration show that he had died.
No death found on FreeBMD index for an Ellis, unfortunately Ellis was registered at death as a girl named Alice.
GRO ref: ROBINSON, Alice q4 1839 Guiltcross RD 13 102; GRO online index shows age at death as 1
Sarah Robinson, presumably his mother, registered the death but made her mark so presumably couldn't write, and probably couldn't read either, so failed to notice the error. With his death certificate naming both parents, and also giving his age quite precisely (1 year and 6 weeks), as well as the burial 5 days later giving his name as Ellis there can be no doubt this is the death of Ellis, not Alice.
Buried 11 Nov 1839 All Saints’ Church, Old Buckenham, Norfolk, England

Witness William Turner presumably James' brother-in-law (sister Frances' husband); Mary Ludkin Sarah's sister.
I have a number of DNA matches to descendants of James and Sarah, including with descendants of their son William and daughter Lois. Most if not all are a single segment; the segemnt(s) could be from James or Sarah or some from each. Certainly I have matches with descendants of Sarah's parents who don't descend from James. I haven't noticed matches with James' parents but with a common name like Robinson they would be harder to notice. (My Mum's cousin Bill has a lot more and larger matches with this part of the tree - as being a generation closer to them would be expected, though with the randomness of DNA is not always the case)
