Their daughter's marriage:
REINER - HOWARD - May 21st, John Batist, son of the late Andrew Reiner, Esq., of Baden-Baden, to Florence Mary Lloyd, only surviving daughter of Surgeon-Major John Simpson Howard, M.B., M.R.C.S., Indian Army, retired, formerly of Highbury, Northam, and
niece of the late Mrs. Lloyd Williams, of Gwernant Park, Cardiganshire, and 22, Imperial-square, Cheltenham.I think that 'niece' should actually be 'great niece'. Mrs LLOYD-WILLIAMS was Ann Maria MITCHELL who married Caulfield Tynte LLOYD-WILLIAMS in 1841 at Marylebone, and her father was Alexander MITCHELL (marriage cert says 'Gentleman').
Ann Maria MITCHELL
Baptism Date: 1 Apr 1821
Baptism Place: St Marylebone, Westminster, England
Father: Alexander MITCHELL
Mother: Eleanor
Also baptised at Marylebone to John and Eleanor were Eleanor Catherine in 1816 and Alexander in 1818.
Eleanor Catherine married in May 1837 to John SHEEHAN at Marylebone and Ann Maria was a witness. Pre civil reg., but baptism registers show him as an Engineer.
GRO indexes show amongst others, Mary born in 1841 and John Alexander born in 1848. In 1851 they are both with their uncle Alexander in Westminster. I can see baptisms for some of the children of John and Eleanor in London, but not Mary.
I know my GGGGrandfather was John Simpson Howard. He married Mary Ann (Last name unknown).
I assume this is the baptism and birth reg. of their only child to be born in England:
John Cecil HOWARD

Baptism Place: Leckhampton, St Peter, Gloucestershire, England
Father: John Simpson HOWARD M.D.
Mother: Mary Ann
HOWARD, CECIL
Mother's maiden surname: SHEEN
