An Elizabeth BENNETT of Granby Street, Devonport (Charity lived there in 1851) was buried at Ford Park Cemetery 27 Jan 1852, aged 30.

Thank you so much,  that’s definitely her I think. So that’s her solved. Now just to find Mary Ann.

I am struggling to find these two people from my tree after the 1851 census. So wondering if some fresh eyes might be able to advise or help.

Both are daughters of Samuel Bennett and Charity Johns.

Firstly is:

Mary Ann Bennett born 1823 in Stoke Damerel (say Devonport on the census)

In 1841 she is with widowed mother Charity. In 1850 I believe she marries William Goddard. Then in 1851 she is in Plymouth with William and daughter Ruth Jane Goddard. After this I can’t find trace of any of them at all.

Secondly is her sister

Elizabeth Bennett born 1828 in Devonport

In 1841 she is at Cumberland Street in Stoke Damerel (a servant)

In 1851 I believe I have found her in Tamerton Foliott as a servant.

Then after this I can’t find trace of her anywhere. She could have married or died, but nothing obvious I can tie her into.

Thank you in advance.

One more.

I wish it stated whether widow, married or single, as then this would give more clues as to whether her or not, but I think  this is a wife of one William Langley.

Thanks for all those

So looks like Mary the daughter died thank you for that as I was trying locate a marriage. I still can't find anything for daughter Elizabeth. Couple of possible marriages but nothing definite.

I thought I found son Edward in Hoo, Kent in 1841 with a wife Hannah, but their deaths put their age  10 years out of the age on census, so not 100% sure. Both died in 1844. i think Hannah may be Ann?

I do think that death of William Langley (52nd regiment) might be him, but with no age it's hard to confirm. I've been trying to see if there is any military record which might give an year of birth.

There is a Martha Langley death in St James Westminster, and I know some later family ended up there, but no Langleys as far as I am aware, so not 100% sure if this is her yet, until I can pinpoint a Langley ended up in that area.

Son William there are two possibly marriages Elizabeth Costin and Elizabeth Day, I think the one who married Costin is older than my William, so more likely Elizabeth Day marriage. Too many Williams to confirm.

Is Heggie the first or second name? Both could be originally from Scotland, if you get the photo dated it would definitely give more to work from.
