Hi Branne
Alfred Edwin is wrongly transcribed as Albert . He married Matilda Hoyle in 1875. She was the widow of John Hoyle. See 1881 census where she is with her children Sarah and Thomas Hoyle. Their children were Henrietta Mona 25 Jan 1876 and Alfred Grime Reid 1879.
William probably died as a small child on Isle of Man as there are newspaper reports of the death of the infant child of John Reid chief constable of Ramsey. William also had a private baptism which suggests he was probably sickly.
Edward is my great great grand father . He married Eliza Roberts 1 Jan 1854 in Bury Lancashire and was shortly afterwards appointed Station Master at Rose Grove Burnley.
Unfortunately he got typhoid and died age 24 in Sept 1855. His only son Edward was born posthumously. This Edward had 10 children and there is a family story that he was contacted by his aunt( Henrietta Mona )as she wanted to return to England in early 1900s. Of course he had no money to send her. Sue.
If you want more info send me a PM.
