I had another look through the newspapers and found a number of interesting items, including the marriage announcement for William Mumford and Ruth Ryland.
And it looks like there's another son of John Mumford, Charles Cotton Mumford, died 1862 aged 41.

Epitome Of News
On Sunday forenoon, as Mr Mumford, of Manor House, Shacklewell, was crossing the south end of Princess-street, by the Bank, he suddenly staggered, fell, and instantly expired. He was identified by a porter in the employ of deceased sons, lace manufacturers, in Milk-street, City. Mr Mumford, who had retired from business some years ago, and was highly esteemed in the City, had for many years been a communicant at Dr Bennett's Chapel, in falcon-square, at which place the intelligence of his sudden death were received by the office-bearers - who alone were present when the information reached them - with the deepest manifestations of sorrow. The deceased gentleman left his sons' warehouse, 1 Milk-street, on Saturday night in good health, and slept at one of his son's houses in Ludgatehill, where, on Sunday, he had appointed to dine, and to meet his family and a number of friends.
