    • The age and birthplace in the censuses clearly show that the John who was married to Mary was the one baptised in Hinstock in 1801.
      A William fitting the one born to John and Hannah was with Mary at the time of the 1841 census, as well as other children born before his marriage to Mary, so it seems fairly safe to assume he had previously been married to Hannah, and the other earlier children were theirs.

      Venue from UKBMD website
      The 1911 census shows that James and Mary had had ten children, two of whom were no longer living. They were probably the 2 not shown here, having been born and died between censuses. (The children shown here are all on the censuses 1881-1911)
      Definitely still living in 1911 were those with James and Mary Ann in the census of that year: Ethel, Nellie, James, Stephen and Edwin.
