EDIT Mark can I just add you seem to have already received a lot of information re Mercy Baker marrying William on other threads, is it therefore from Mark forwards that you are wanting info?

Hi, I have had some fantastic assistance regarding William and Mercy (Baker). Mt ancestor is through their son George born 1850 and I an trying to find out about their other children. They had a big family by today's standards but it was a shame that Mercy ended up at the workhouse in Cerne (Abbas).

They had James b Batcombe did he marry, have children?
Henry b 1841 married Mary Balton Fox - any children?
Charles married Judith (surname not known) did they have any children?
Alfred b 1847 Batcombe did he marry, have children? William b 1847  ditto
Ann b 1849 ditto
as well as Mark and Edith.

If at all possible any help with any of those would be fantastic.  Mark

Thank you again for all your help so far. By the way do you think Elizabeth Jane married to George Slade is the Jane  on the 1881 census? Thanks Mark

[mark foot]

I notice that I had James  born 1839 and wonder if that date is right? (if wrong may of had another son, if the first one died?). Just checking if the same James?  Mark
