hi  jan, this sure is the family......i have only got my information on them frm a friend and my friend must have some dates wrong.....this is great....if william died in 1847 and rebecca died in 1843, i wonder what then happened to the young children.....i hope older siblings were able to take them in.........an older sister caroline married an edward anslee in 1838, she had 5 children born in buckinghamshire till 1848,  or maybe benjamin who i have down as william benjamin rich, was old enough to take care of the rest after the parents passed............oh dear........would anyone be able to look up the next census for me if possible, to see if they can be found........very grateful for any further help.

kindly frm heather
