Yes, the birth of Emily in 1839 had me wondering, also. I couldn’t find Jane either.

What are the names of the other children, Annette?

Think this may be Francis on the 1871: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:VBDZ-LVG

Thanks so far for your help.

I have Francis pretty well mapped out. It's his parents and siblings who have been a struggle. In the 1841 census mentioned by you - Jamjar - we have both an Emily and a Jane of the right dates, no parents and the addition of a Charlotte, Selina and Agnes. The location is in roughly the right area, as is Bryanston Sq., albeit in a different direction from where the family resided in 1851.

Taking Francis's birth certificate and the 1851 census as reference points, the father John died between 1843 and 1851, probably nearer 1843 as there are no children named after Francis. There is another probable daughter - Mary-Ann - who was born on 06-Mar 1837 and baptised at Saint Mary-St Marylebone Road,St Marylebone,London,England.

Compliments of the Season.
