HI!

The I.G.I  lists a marriage between Joseph Lane and Lucy Russell Peart on 17 Nov 1888, at Alstone, Worcester. Groom was 30, bride 34. Bride's father was William Peart.
However,despite the age difference being the same as the 1881 census this is too late for this Lucy to have been Joseph John's mother......perhaps there were 2 Lucys?!Could the Russell part of the name indicate a previous marriage?

Off to work now...good luck!

Robert b.1841, no occupation listed.All were born in North Curry-which is about 8 miles or so from Taunton.

In 1871, only John & Penelope at same address.Could not see any Roberts who matched ..sorry!
