As far as I know, there were no children other than those resulting from the second marriage. The only marriage record that I have seen (which was from the second marriage) does not refer to marital status so I don't know for sure whether there were previous marriages. It just seems to be the same man whose wife died in July and who remarried in September. The second? wife was 24yrs at the time of the marriage (he was 52yrs). Was this old for a woman to be married for the first time? If so, perhaps she was a widow - I hadn't thought of that. They did start having children quickly and had 7 in total so, if she had been married previously, it would have been probable that there were children from the previous marriage unless they had been unable to have any.
Any other thoughts would be most welcome. Thanks.
