Two days ago I came across an entry from a Jackson family which apparently had the information that I need but it was on the site of An..s.ry  C.m if anyone has access to this site maybe they could help me out, I am 81 and my time is running appreciate any help or advise.
Thank you kindly     Ochsenkopf

That online tree quotes a burial at Barnsley, Gloucestershire for Benjamin.  The image that they have linked says -1791 - Benjamin Jackson was buried Dec 13th at the Parish Expence (sic)

The image for Edith states
1801
Jackson Edith, widow was buried 4th of December 1801
(also at Barnsley)

I think you mean 1751. Do you have Benjamin's ancestors? Parents Joseph & Anne, g'parents Joseph & Mary Jane, and so on? Was he, by any chance, a stonemason?

Hello and thank you so much to Rosie, Duport and Capetown you all have solved this problem for me, although I knew that three of the Jackson children died at Barnsley I could not connect Benjamin and Eddy/Edith dying there as well.The birth of their last child Patience was 17/8/1791 Barnsley so the burial of Benjamin fits in well as does Edith.
Yes I did place an extra 100 years onto Benjamin's christening it should have been 16/6/1751 at  Windrush Parents Joseph ch 3/1708 married Ann Newman 10/4/1732 Windrush about 10 children Grandparents were Joseph ch 6/2/1675 Windrush married a Mary Gardiner 26/10/1704 at Southrop but I am not sure if this marriage is correct as it has been years and years since my research was done and things get mislaid.
And yes to the question they were Stonemasons
I can now fill in those gaps which I have waited years for, thank you all again.
Getting tired so I had better call it a day and get some rest.

Hello Again
Just to confirm that the marriage I had for Joseph and Mary Gardiner was correct and it stated the place of abode for Joseph was Winrick no doubt this was Windrush and she was of Lechlade all of this info came from B D &M Free Reg. Phillimores Transcripts
