Hi all,
I have a problem I'm hoping people can help me fathom out.
Sophia Elderfield bapt. 1828 Harwell (d/o Richard & Rachel)
Sophia marries Thomas Buckell 1850 in Abingdon - by Licence.
Unable to find Thomas & Sophia in 1851, but have got them in 1861.
No 1871 census for them found but; a Sophia appears as w/o Anthony Palmer in 1881 with a g/daughter Sarah Buckell.
In 1891 Henry Buckell is with a wife named Elizabeth (nee Chapman) married 17-7-1878 Harwell, as a widower.
Are there two families here or did they separate and remarry!!
Any help much appreciated.

In 1851 on Ancestry, the surname has been transcribed as Bucker. With them is a 3yo Henry Elderfield. Living in Harwell.
There's a death in Q3 of 1861 of a Thomas Buckell in Wallingford Registration District.
And there's a marriage in Q1 1880 in Wantage Registration District between a Sophia Buckle and an Anthony Palmer. Also note that in 1871, Thomas and Sophia have a 16yo servant called Louise Palmer.
And in 1871 she's Sophia Buckett on Ancestry, living with son Henry J Buckett (who I suspect is really Henry Elderfield).

Hi STG & Trish,
Thank you both for your valuable assistance. The info you have given is very useful.
With that and what I have found, I think basically the tree works this way, no doubt if I'm wrong I'll be corrected;
John Buckell bapt.. 1774 Milton, Berks (s/o Joseph & Martha) (per Milton transcripts ex OFHS).
John marries Sarah Ballad 1802 Milton (per Milton transcripts ex OFHS) - Sarah is buried 1812 Milton
John re-marries Mary Giles 1820 Hampstead Norreys (by Licence -ex Wilts MLB cd)
Thomas Buckell bapt. 1824 (s/o John & Mary) (per Milton transcripts ex OFHS)
Thomas marries Sophia Elderfield 1850 Abingdon St.Helens By Licence (she already has a son Henry John Elderfield bapt1848 Harwell).
Thomas dies 9-8-1861 Didcot (burial place not found - but date taken from Probate Calendar).
Sophia Buckell (nee Elderfield) re-marries Anthony Palmer (mar ¼ )1880 Wantage Dist. (place & date not found).
Anthony dies 1900 and Sophia 1906 both Wantage dist.
All I would like to do now is to put actual dates and parishes against their respective entries.
Using all the CDs I have from Oxfordshire & Berks FHS nothing turns up. Perhaps they married in Registry Offices, entries which are not on-line.
