Because my interest has piqued  I'm sure you have this but for those who may read and ponder 


MARRIAGE 1850:
Marriage: 13 Sep 1850 St Mary of the Assumption, Burnley, Lancashire
Alphonse Nolin - 63rd Regt.
Elizabeth Newton - Burnley
    Groom's Father: Toussaint Nolin, of Norwich
    Bride's Parents: James Newton, of Norwich & Sarah
    Witnesses: Charles Eastwood, of Burnley; Alice Henshaw, of Burnley

63rd is (West Suffolk) Regiment of Foot?  but the baptisms of children indicate NW Militia (West Norfolk) - which in turn matches the 1861 Census - below:

CENSUS 1861: Chapel Street, Heigham, Norfolk
Head: Thomas Rowland, 32, Staff Sergeant, 1st West Norfolk Militia
Wife: Elizabeth Rowland 36, b Heigham, Norfolk
Son: Walter Rowland 9, b Norwich, Norfolk
Dau: Emely Rowland 1 yr, 9mth, b Heigham, Norfolk
Visitor: Emely Pearce 13 mth, Scholar, b Heigham, Norfolk

I think surname is mis-transcribed in the Enumerator's book  as Rowland & also think  Emely Pearce is 13 years, not months - age 13 matches her to be the neice. Her status was written as 'Scholar' then it was crossed out.

BAPTISM
On 2 Aug 1859 at Heigham, Norfolk:  Emily Nolin, daughter of Alphonse Thomas Nolan & Elizabeth Nolin, Sgt W N Militia
On 10 Aug 1859 at Heigham, Norfolk:  Walter Alphonse  Nolin, son of Alphonse Thomas Nolan & Elizabeth Nolin, Sgt W N Militia

CENSUS 1891 - in Stoke Newington, London
Head: Alphonse Nolin 64, Army Pensioner, b Norwich
Wife: Elizabeth 67, b Norwich

John 20, is possibly married 1900 to Charlotte Ann Potter and in Netherall in 1901with a daughter. Marriage transcript says his father is William Davidson.

Edward Denton 1901 - can't find , but he married Blanche Gertrude Jeffrey in 1906 Scarborough; He is a Journalist in 1911, no children
Trees say he died 1923 in Leeds

Henry - trees say died: 22 NOV 1897 at  32 Nelson Street, Maryport

Joseph - trees say he died: 18 NOV 1893 32 Nelson Street, Maryport aged 9, of Nephritis
If this is the case, not sure who the Joseph Davidson is to whom William's probate was issued in 1899 - a brother maybe?

Herbert - trees say died 1900

The mother's birth?
BIRTH 1856:
Margaret Denton, mms Gillbanks

and her sister:
Frances Denton ,mms Gillbanks

Indicating - the Denton visitors in the 1881 Davidson household, are possibly Margaret's mother (also Margaret) and sister, Frances?
