That was the marriage I identified as ours

The marriage to Jane would also be a possible as would the Stowford identification.

Thank you all for the help you have given. I now have a lot of work to do on this family

I will continue to try to find some report of Elizabeth's death. If it was at all unusual the papers would report it I think.

The Bickles I have found in local papers from Devon and Cornwall so far  have been less than reputable. Wonder of any of them are "ours"!

There's a William Bickle death in Sep 1838 Tavistock - could be the father so wouldn't be around in 1841. 

Is Lewtrenchard in the right part of Devon?

1841

Eliza Bickle 35
William 8
Eliza 5
Thomas 3

I added this in later but here it is again:
Stowford baptisms show an Eliza Squire BICKLE dau of Wiliam (Blacksmith) and Eliza of Stowford Village bapt 26 Apr 1835.
Broadwoodwidger baptisms show 23 Dec 1832 William Squire BICKELL son of Wiliam (Blacksmith) and Eliza
Broadwoodwidger burial:
31 Aug 1838 William BICKLE of Thrushelton aged 38

Close to Stowford is Thrushelton and FindMyPast has the image/transcription of the baptism for -
Thomas, bap 31 Dec 1837 at Thrushelton, abode Wollacott, parents William and Elizabeth Bickle, occupation Blacksmith

Is there a baptism for Eliza c1835?  There is an Eliza born Thrushelton who is 16 a servant in 1851, thinking she could be the 5 year old from 1841 - possible sister.

Added - thanks DOB7

I think we are getting somewhere now - remember the grandson mentioned earlier William Thomas Bickle 23 in 1881

well he is with unmarried mother Eliza Squire Bickle 46

and grandmother Eliza Ellis widow 76 - this could be the widow of William who died 1838 remarried to an Ellis.

[Milliepede]

I think Eliza Bickle marries Richard Ellis in Sep 1846 because in 1861 they have 3 year old William Thomas Bickle grandson with them. 

Also with them in 1871 age 13.

Eliza Bickle, widow, father Ruben (Reuben) Squire, labourer, married Richard Ellis, bachelor at Stoke Damerel on 29 Sep 1846

Aha Ruben Squire  there is the connection.
