Just noticed a Samuel Kelson age 12, Lab, not born in County on 1841 Census with the Hals +
On same page;
Thos Kelson 1781 Grocer
Margaret Kelson   1796
James Kelson 1816

William Kelson 1838    
Catharine Kelson 1840

Robert HALL married Hester KELSON 19 Jul 1830 St Swithin, Walcot, Somerset (Bachelor/Spinster)

Although Elizabeth Perrin nee Hall said she was 33 when she married 1889 she may have shaved a few years of her age given her spouse to be was 25.

Also if Thomas Kelson is Hesters Father Margaret is unlikely to be her Mother.

FreeREG has a Marriage 1835 Bath, Thomas Kelson of Twerton, Widower, to Margaret Fortt, Widow
Her Mother is likely SARAH Kelson who was buried Twerton 28 Jan 1821 age 42

1851 Census James Kelson from 1841 Census is born c 1813/14 Bradford, Wiltshire.

1851 Census Thomas Kelson c 1779 Bradford

GRO Death Reg;
KELSON, THOMAS, age 79 ***
GRO Reference: 1858  M Quarter in BATH  Volume 05C  Page 551

Lastly William Henry Perrin is easy to find 1851/1861/1871 Census.
Born c 1846 English Combe, Somerset
Death Reg Bath 1875 age 29

Possible Child, Mothers mn Hall reg Bath;
Frederick Perrin 1874
He died same year.

[trish1120]

Well maybe not the last above;

1881 Census has a Elizabeth Perrin born c 1849 Tiverton, Somerset (image may be Twerton)
A Widow, Ladies Maid, living in the Tate Household in Sevenoaks, Kent.

So entirely possible she ended up in the US by 1889.

Wow so much to take in,
 thanks so much for all your assistance here. So if its the Eliz we are hoping to find she was actually almost 20 years older than her husband to be Lewis Bradford Giles! Maybe she died in childbirth in Virginia USA.
Gosh so many widow/widowers in this story!
