I think William may be the son of William and Martha Friar, as there are other Friars born in Chester with those parents and obviously family names are always common. Can't find a baptism for William but there's Ann in 1797 and John in 1786.

Need to fill in the blanks for children too:

Can anyone find Henry Friar born 1817, or John Friar born 1825 on the 1841 census in the Chester area, or a dearth before the census?

Also looking for Ann Friar born 1822 on the 1841 census, she married William Campbell in Liverpool in 1846. There is one at Boughton and one at Mickle Trafford but can't figure out which is right.

Also Jane Friar born 1830, who is with parents on the 1841 census but may have married or died before 1851.
