Thank you I did know most of it but some useful extra bits thanks.
I'm pretty sorted with John and Susan's children. It's William, his brother, who I'm really struggling with. I have found a whole family for William and his wife Sarah but can find no records to link William and his family to his brother. I can find no baptism records for William's 3 children: John 1815, William 1818 and Eliza 1822. Did they just not get them baptised?!
The surname seems to change alot between Langford, Lankford and Lankfer which makes it even more confusing.

I do have most of that thank you but its good to have it confirmed that you think they are related in that way as well.
For Henry Langford I have down that he is the illegitimate child of Jane Langford and William Sharpe. I think that is correct.
Any other information is much appreciated.
