Hi,

The only info I can add is that at William and Catherine's marriage the witnesses were Elizabeth Coombs and George Coombs. Could be her brother and sister or brother and his wife.
regards.

Don/Deb: the moderators will remove your email addresses when they see them. If you make one more post you will be able to use the personal message facility.

Have you seen the grave transcription for William, Catherine and some of his family? It is here (no 52) and has some interesting facts about their son William. William (senior) appears to have missed the 1841 census by only a few days:
