In the 1861 census Ann Reynolds and Mary Ann Reynolds both are recorded as the daughter of a widowed Ann Reynolds.
This would mean that the older Ann Reynolds had daughters called Ann, Mary and Mary Ann, which would be rather uninventive on her part, but as she is only 49, not impossible at all.

But then it would rule out that 1860 marriage

Is that previous question addressed to me, as regarding the 1871 census?

Which births are you have problems finding, where have you looked for them, and what difficulties are you having with finding out about Eliza's brothers?

Do you mean these 3?
John Reynolds    6  Wenlock (about 1864/1865)
Thos Reynolds    3   Wenlock   (about 1867/1868)
Eliza Reynolds    2  Easthope   (about 1868/1869)

There are possible births for the 2 boys in Madeley, and for Eliza in Church Stretton, which are the correct districts for the birth places specified in that 1871 census.

If you want to know what happened to them, have you looked for them in censuses, and also marriages and deaths?
With such common names it is going to be difficult to search for them, as there might be several possibles showing.

Could you explain the meaning of the double exclamation marks?  My interpretation is that I have done something wrong, or missed something out.  More useful feedback would be appreciated.

Thank-you

Just realised it says you are a 'senior' whilst I am just a 'member', interesting it what rootschat thinks of us.

Does it definitely say 17 for Ann's age - as in all the censuses recorded she is about 7 years older than her husband, so would be 27 at marriage?
