Thank you Puffcat. I'm trying to find out if they had any children but nothing yet.
I have found that John Vickress (b.1890), son of William Vickress (1859-1936) and Ellen Morris (1855-1924), married Ellen Rawlings and had the following children:
*William T.J. Vickress (1912), married Dorothy Hancocks, and were the parents of Roy W.R. Vickress (1934) *Milbore P.L. Vickress (1914) *Ellen M. Vickress (1916) *Austen J. Vickress (1918) *Robert F. Vickress (1921) *Arthur R. Vickress (1923) *Lawton R. Vickress (1925) *Derick C. Vickress (1929)
John's sister Milborough Vickress (1892) married (1916) Austin T. Jenksm and were the parents of:
*Doris M. Jenks (1917) *Joyce M. jenks (1928)
John and Milborough's sister Ann Drusilla (1893) married (1921) John F. Green, and were the parents of:
*Jack F.W. Green (1922) *Bertram R. Green (1924) *Kathleen Green (1928) *Doris M. Green (1930)
I wonder whether any of these are still alive! I'd so much like to find out more about them. I didn't realsie this at first but the Vickress family is huge, and it pretty much looks like all the Vickresses in Herefordshire are related to me.

Possibly a Daisy in 1904 is daughter to Charles Henry and Elizabeth.
1911 Census would confirm

I had a look at the transcript for Daisy on the 1911, and she is the daughter of an Elizabeth Vickress aged 44, bn in Eardisland. Elizabeth is listed as married but doesn't give the number of years married. No husband appears on the transcript.

News!
Charles Henry Vickress (b. Sep 1870) was NOT the son of Frederick Vickress and Ann née Tippins, but rather the son of Edward Vickress and Ann (maiden name for the moment unknown). The only Edward I've found is one born in 1835, son of Mary Ann Vickress (there is a Henry Edward Vickress, 1830-1875, but I don't think it's him) and unknown father. I think it's the Mary Ann Vickress born in 1813, elder sister of Frederick Vickress, so Edward was Frederick's nephew and Charles Henry his great-nephew).
If anyone can confirm this (census info etc) please confirm so I can change Charles Henry's position on the tree.
Thanks!

And a Mary Ann Vickress (the same one as the mother maybe?) married Joseph Caldwell in Hope under Dinmore on April 17th 1837. Can anyone check the 1841 or 1851 census to see if there is Edward Vickress living with the Caldwell family? If it is the same Mary Ann he was certainly never legitimised as Joseph Caldwell's son... Penny for your thoughts!

Will have a look for you now.
Have just been looking at the Times online archive for Vickresses, and there are loads about the London Vickresses (we'll have to work out your connection to them aswell ) But, tucked away was a couple of paragraphs about a double murder in Herefordshire According to the paper Thomas Bown/Bounds (aged 75) shot himself after shooting dead William Alfred Vickress (aged about 45) with whom he had been living. William Vickress' daughter witnessed it

When was that murder, Spidermonkey? Is it William Alfred Vickress who was born in 1877, son of Alfred Vickress and Hannah Orchard? He had two daughters... I initially thought I was descended from the London Vickresses, but perhaps there is a link further up...

The murder happened at Litmarsh MArden. Bown must have died there and then, but Vickres lived until the next day and died in hospital.
