She may have been her grandmother  ;)

I think you are on the right track and that Charles died young.

I think that Mary Bilton is Mary Harris Willis and more than likely Mary Harris 70 yrs is her mother - grandmother to Lydia and presumably her sister - also Mary.

The intriguing thing is that in 1861 James appears to be in Stepney with a Sophia/e b Buckinghamshire c1818.  he's the same age as James in 1841/51 and born Cambridgeshire. There are three children, all born in Ratcliff - Josiah b c1849 [indexed as Jonah on Ancestry], John b c1851 and Eliza b c 1856. This are all on the GRO records, with mmn Hone,  along with William James b Stepney 1842 and Jane Catherine b Stepney 1847

I'm was wondering if Mary's maiden name was Hone and she died between 1856 and 1861, until I found baptisms for the children with parents James and Sophia. there's a possible marriage in 1839, but her surname is Owen

confused!
