Hello Doffy!

Thanks a lot, I've checked my info and corrected the previous mistakes, thanks anyway!

All I know about Robert is that he married once before marrying a woman much older than he. Her name was Judith Bond (née Cooke). He was born in 1821, and she in 1798; she lived until 1893, and he till 1900. I don't know why they would have married, but all I can think of is material. But who knows. I'd like to know who his first wife was, and whether he had any children (I can only guess his second marriage was childless).

There is also another sister, Margaret, who died shortly after marrying a man called Thomas Croft. I don't know what she died of, but perhaps it may have been childbirth. If so, I don't know what the child's name was, if it ever did exist.

I was in Colwall a couple of years ago (my dad's grandparents are buried there). Very nice place, would love to go back and do a better search of the gravestones.

I actually think all the Allens in Colwall are related; I've studied my line's ancestors and completed collateral lines, and it seems they were all cousins. I wonder if we still have relatives over there, since it's such a small place...

Best regards!
