Marriage help needed please for Sampson and Eliza Ganfield

[junket]

In 1841, Sampson GANFIELD and wife Eliza and dau Elizabeth are living with his parents, John and Diana in Wedmore, Somerset.

A GRO search on dau Elizabeth, Reg. Dec Q 1840, gave no results found for mother's maiden name.
( there is a baptism 1844, but no additional info, just name date and parents and abode )

In 1851, they have, George and James
In 1861, they have, a Tom.

GRO searcnes, for the boy's
birth Regs, give AXON as Mother's maiden name.

In 1871, Jane Kingstone,  Mother-in-law, abt 1781, Greinton, Somerset is living with them. ( which suggests, her maiden name could be Kingstone, unless mother was widowed and remarried ?  But, there is a Jane AXON, base born, baptised in Greinton, in 1785, mother not named ( FreeReg ). Suggesting she had Eliza before marriage.).

Eliza, gives her birth, c 1816, Meare.

A search for a marriage for the couple ( Sampson and Eliza ) and baptism for Eliza are proving difficult.

Could fresh eyes and brain  , help please ?

( Mother Jane, is on census, with a John Kingstone, in 1861,1851 ( still to find them in 1841 ).  He is ex army. 28th Regiment of Foot  ).

Thank you

Thanks Giggsy.

Seems, that this Elizabeth died.
They had another Elizabeth, in 1843, the Baptism, I'm checking for a death, as she isn't on censuses.

Mother's maiden name, is AXON in 1843.

That would explain why I couldn't find Elizabeth then!

Could be that both Elizabeth's died?

Yes, all the others are way too old in the timeframe.

I too wondered, how an age under 1year, would be entered.

( I found a 3/4 on a burial. last week, presuming, this was weeks )

"I too wondered, how an age under 1year, would be entered."

There have been a couple of threads on that subject on RC recently.

I expect someone will enlighten us!
